Hugh MacKay said: (quoted from post at 03:44:41 06/20/08) Ctry Boy: I had several young lads working on the farm back when my 560 diesel was new, and it did have the same type crank as your 460. Of course with the diesel it was only used for turning engine for timing etc.
One of these young lads was not very mechanically inclined, but he was quite rugged physically. His co-workers chalanged him to crank start the 560 diesel. He did surprise them how well he turned it over, surprised me too. Problem was they never told him about the glow plugs, or even offered to hold them on for him. 560 never did start on crank, but he did try for about 10 min.
Thats cruel, yet funny. I'm not sure I should laugh or feel pitty, Hugh!
