How to start a Truck with a Hand crank. #truck #cars #supercars

Crank starting an old truck by hand take a bit of strength to turn the engine over.
Imagine starting a V8 like this.

Good way to break your wrist if it backfires. Always pull a crank handle around, never push it.

Started 2 cylinder tractors that way. Absolutely NOT for me. You're gonna break something.

That's a GREAT way to break an arm or kill yourself.

I was cranking a 1952 D8-2u dozer's pony motor, I knew cranks were dangerous but had never fooled with one prior.

Sure enough, first starting attempt I get a reverse spin and it threw me (195lbs) off the track and back into the cab. The bruise it left on my hand was black and purple for a week and a half. VERY lucky I didn't break my arm.

You bet I treated that pony motor with more respect after that.

Talking that way won't help the truck start any sooner

don't need to floor it before any oil is flowing.
