Bump starting from coasting in neutral -
Clutch down, put shifter in top gear, regardless of road speed.
Using a quick up-down foot motion, spin engine just a bit, then push it back down.
Reaches idle after about 1/2 second.
Then put in proper gear for your road speed.
My 5th gear synchro is a bit temperamental so I often bump it in fourth.
You want high gear because you need low rpms spin to start the engine. No lurching that way.
