When I left my keys in the ignition of my auto Geo Metro on accessory (14 years ago), my amp completely drained my battery. My friends successfully push started me. Pretty amazing for a 1L 3cyl automatic... I also once drove an overheating Pontiac Grand Am to the dealership to trade it in. I accelerated it up to around 90 before it got too hot, then turned it off and coasted to 45 to let it cool down before I turned it back on and let out the clutch to start it. Then, I would speed back up to 90 again.
It doesn't seem to me like it's that hard on the engine to push start it. Hell DFCO pretty much does the same thing, I think...
