Mt Tam I am A True Z Fanatic Join Date: Jun 2010 Location: California Posts: 10,709 Drives: 370Z T/S/N 6MT & XKE Rep Power: 3843	Bump starting I was having dinner with a forum celebrity recently and we discussed the ability of the Z to be "bump started" or "compression started" with a M6 Z and a dead (low volt) battery. Neither of us has tried it in a 370Z, just other older cars. I feel that releasing the clutch will stop the starting process. Has anyone tried this or know the answer?
