My dad had one of those, I learned to cuss from him when he was trying to
start it.

My thought, too, on winding a spring to start it. Reminds me of a rotary
mower I bought from Sears in 1961. I'd lift the "crank" handle, turn it
counterclockwise to wind a spring, then stow the crank handle to release
the spring to turn the engine. Easiest, best-starting mower I've had;
used it nearly 30 years.

THat is impressive. A whole chevy 454 in each cylinder. I whole IH
/ford powerchoke in each cylinder.
It appeared though that the crank compressed a spring or something that
was released to actually turn over the engine. I don't think that
anyone short of paul bunyan could directly crank a 28L 4 cyl fast
enough to start it.
