Key is in the on position, wheel unlocked (never used to be an issue) anyway, roll down the hill, put the transmission in second or third and let the clutch out smoothly, the engine will fire as it's being turned over via the drivetrain with spark and fuel to the cylinders. Be ready to either push the clutch back in when it starts or after you get the feel just keep on moving..Note gear selection depends on the incline.

Ever lose a starter or battery is low and you have pushers or have parked on a hill, you can drive away..
