I had a 91 Sport 5-Speed for a little while, but never had to roll-start it. It just started every time I turned the key. My current POS would actually be bearable if I could rollstart it. It can't be roll started and I found that out the hard way. I thought anything manual could be, but apparently that's not the case. I'm sick of it and want to be rid of the troublesome, unreliable vehicle that it is and find another old X or an old 'Yota or anything that isn't a shoppinglist of problems and is dirt, and I mean dirt cheap because unlike Joel Osteen, I've never been financially blessed. That is a long sentence, but like the Hardee's commercial says, "That's just the way it is".
Getting on to the point of this thread, can a 5-speed Explorer be rollstarted? I really hope it can. A Toyota truck I had in the past could rollstart if you could roll it even 3'! I even rollstarted it in reverse! It was a truck that would not get stuck someplace if it could help it!
