Not really complicated.

Protect the bumpers and push with another vehicle.

Put RX-7 in 2nd gear

Key to RUN.

Slowly let out clutch until RX-7 is running then pull away from other vehicle.

If it's part of a de-flooding procedure, I'd remove the leading plugs and crank it a few times, then add a little bit of 2 cycle before proceeding.

tow rope is safer than pushing, if you enjoy having a bumper that is.
