Default Re: Starting the Model A with a crank

Many years ago I hand started my A with a loose motor and the timing spot on. Today with a fresh motor and HC head I wouldn't try it, I would fix my issues with the electric starter ! Back when I was in high school my A wouldn't start asked for help to push start it, the 2-3 guys got it started within 3 feet of pushing, they thought they would have to push me for blocks !
