When conducting jump start, the donor car should be in neutral. Put the donor car handbrakes on. When the cables are correctly fixed to the car with the weak battery, ignite the donor car and rev its engine hard to ensure a strong surge of current.

If all goes well, the driver, meaning the car with the weak battery should have little problem starting the car. All other steps remain the same as per the article above.

1.the gear is the most important thing which u most put on 2or3 its hard to in gear 1 to start and also harmful for your car.
2.in push start car after the car is started u shouldn’t press the break first because the car will be off first clutch and then break.

For the auto cars also you can’t do push start.

You seem to have missed out from my article. The statement should read, “once the car stars, the driver should immediately step on the clutch, free gear, and keep it in high idle to avoid the engine dying off again”. Remember, you’ll have to free gear.
