This follows on from story number 4 by California Treviesco.

I grew up on a farm and drove tractors without power steering and starter motors. I learned very early in my life just where to put your thumb when steering or cranking. Not around the steering wheel or crank handle but on the same side as your four fingers. If you didn’t you would have, sooner or later, an incident resulting in thumb or hand pain or injury. Many readers will have driven these tractors too and experience the same pain. Some may have experienced it in cranking their A and it backfired especially if the timing was not set in retard.
I don’t wish to be a know-all but I can speak with authority on this.
