Quarter turn and it was running. I've never tried to crank it cold. Henry put a starter on it for a reason. There's no future in cranking IMHO.

My experience you can push the thing and then jump in and dump the clutch easier some times. Just a slight downgrade and once you get it rolling... Oh, and don't forget to turn the key on first! LOL Don't ask me how I know. LOL
