I withnessed Bill start up procedure....
On a visit to the farm Bill offered us a drive..... and we cranked and we cranked..... Bill had instrcuted us that the engine needed 100 turn of the crank to get 2 full revolution of the engine and amptly expalined why. After pulling a battery cart that must have weighted half as much as the tank... cables were connected and a laborious starting process began.... took a while for all cylinders to fire in an orderly fashion........ and the oily smoke insured there would be no mosquitoes.
Cheers
