While I'm on a roll: engine manuals will assume the use, generally, of an electric starter. "Turn it over 5 turns" is very generic. The way I do it? Fill your tank. Open the throttle. Cover the carb throat with a finger. Turn the prop by hand until fuel is sucked up the fuel line. STOP turning the engine when the fuel (you've got clear or translucent lines, right? You can see the fuel in 'em?) JUST touches the carb. The fuel in the line will advance up the line as you turn the engine. Stop turning it when the line is full, but before fuel is sucked in - or just after the fuel touches the carb. Experience will show you.

The only exception I had to this was a Fox .35 C/L engine - it had to be dripping fuel before it would start.......
