Step 6
Put the transmission in first or second gear.

Wrong!
Guess they've never done it much.

The engine will turn more times and easier at slower speeds if you push, than pop the clutch in third or fourth gear.
In 1st or 2nd you'll get maybe one, two turns on the engine usually followed by a screech from the tires not turning any more from the resistance created from lower gears. Don't use first and depending on the gearing don't use second either.
