Re: Starting the Model A with a crank
I shattered a wrist cranking a Farmal when I was 12 and got almost launched a couple times kicking a motorbike with manual advance.
Engines don't like to kick back if the base timing is set ATDC or/to slightly before TDC.
As mentioned, keep that thumb out of the way.
Right now the humidity is up and the barometer is on the move, the wrist hurts.
