Save the bravado for when you are a "pro" Jason!
Yikes! I think your swinging at the wrong guy. I'm a self declared newbie that has no issue realizing I'm out of my league here. I measure all the advice offered (thanks by the way!) and try to make the most educated decision possible, for me.

If you can't afford an electric starter, I think I can find a spare one around here I'll send you.

I have a starter I would give you also, that is if it is an issure of cost.
Thank you both so much for the offer. I do indeed have a starter already.
Safety: this is the deciding factor for me. I do not need to be the guy who learns the hard way on this one. I think my initial reluctance was related to my hatred of being dependent on a device when in theory this is something I should be able to do without it. However, all I need do is consider the potential risks (even if they are small) to make the call that a starter just makes sense here.
Well I'll give it another go today, with my starter for the first time. I'll report back on my success. Thanks again guys!!
