Technically, "crank" is still the act of driving the engine's moving parts with the starter motor, or a hand crank in that context. "Start" is the IMPLIED desired result.
"Crank" and "turn over" are often (incorrectly) used interchangeably with "start." That works in a non-technical context, where people know what you mean.
We're working in a VERY technical context here, so you need to be CRYSTAL CLEAR in what you mean so that everyone is speaking the same language and can offer useful help.
It does no good to clean the points or check for voltage at the coil, if the engine doesn't crank/turn over with the starter.
It does no good to charge the battery and clean the cable connections if the engine is cranking just fine, but will not START.
Someone who hasn't learned this stuff yet will not understand that one has nothing to do with the other, and will waste hours tinkering with the ignition when they really need to clean the battery cables or look at the starter motor itself, or vice versa.
