rusty....I TOTALLY agree; this ain't rocket science. If you gotta ask, don't do!!! I've also done as you and Dickel have and have pulled started and rolled 'em off a hill untold hundreds/maybe thousands of times. First diesel we (my dad) ever owned was a new D-17 in the late '50s; thing never started right with the starter. Dealer couldn't figure out what was wrong and we pull-started/left it on a grade for years before they FINALLY figured out there something wrong with the pump. At one time or another, we've pulled started every (gear drive) tractor we've ever owned. First vehicle I ever owned was a 3/4 ton '53 Chevalay w/4 speed. Had a draggy starter and it wouldn't start more times than it would; even when going to 'town', I'd pick a parking space on an incline and leave it about 3 ft from the curb; never failed to start before it hit the curb. If you gotta ask a bunch of on-line citified farmers (Allan's term) how to pull start something, don't do it.
