Can you get someone to bump/push start?

2ng gear, foot pressed down on clutch with ignition on. When you get a fair speed up, dump the clutch and floor the gas.

When did it last get a fuel filter :?: Cos if its an old one the water in the bottom of it will have frozen, Pull of oil cap and look in whilst someone turns it over and look for valve gear moving to see if belt is broken
