Used to be, if your rig had a bad starter and a manual transmission, it could be pop-started by being pushed up to speed, the push car would back off on a hand signal, and the driver would let the clutch slip with the tranny in 3rd or 4th, and engine compression would take over.
I doubt if that's even done anymore, except by us old timers.
