bench starting a engine. NO NEVER
I know everyone here has the own opinion in bench starting. Or even what it is. When I talk about bench starting ,everything's together . engine in the boat mount, prop shaft in, turning a boat prop. Radio working . I run a engine just long enough, as I was at the pond ready to launch . 20-30 sec. tops . Not in VISE turning a airplane prop . Some refer to it that way just my opinion. Do you call it bench starting or pre-start? A new engine is very hard to start. open the plug, still hard then what ? when we say bench start what is it ?
