Maybe the starter motor is taking all of the juice. I have never hand cranked a model "A",but I have seen it done. I guess you want to pull on the crank. I had a bad starter on a model "T" and the coils were not getting electricity. Some cars actually supply the full 12 volts to the coil when starting.

He probably has had the starter rebuilt. Do you think he is playing some kind of mind game with us. I think this problem has been going on for months.
