An old timer taught me how to crank start any tractor, and I have not had any issues. Here is what he taught me:
With the ignition OFF or mag OFF, full choke, throttle open, then 1-2 cranks (depending upon outside temp, cold=2, warm =1). choke 1/2, throttle 1/3 or so, ignition or mag on. Start crank at 6 o'clock. cupped hand, thumb along, NOT AROUND the handle. Quick pull up, pull crank away and stop at 12 o'clock.
If it is going to start, it will start using this technique 100% of the time. Of course this assumes that plugs, points, condensor, timing, etc. are all in decent working condition/correct. If the engine has been running and is already warmed up, no choke is necessary.
