Pushing the car to start the engine

            0

«striker» Focus with automatic transmission cannot be pushed. With other versions, your shifting force is also only worthwhile if the engine is theoretically ok. If you hear crackling sparks under the hood, you better spare your strength. This can even be good for your budget, because if the ignition sparks do not follow the path of least resistance, unburned fresh air-fuel mixture can ignite in the exhaust system and destroy the catalytic converter.

Stages of work



Turn on the ignition. Since the alternator in higher gears gives too little energy, it is better to turn on when pushing into first gear.

Push in the clutch and let your car PUSH.

As soon as the car accelerates sufficiently, engage the clutch sharply - the engine spins and should start.

Disengage the clutch, disengage the gear, engage the handbrake and gently step on the gas.

If your assistants have not accelerated the car enough to start the engine, try your luck in second gear.
