[SEL] Bill's Ole Fairbanks

[Bruce Younger]

Bill, to answer the question directly, no.  The F-M Type R maggie is a 
rotary type that has to be pretty well brought up to speed to make a spark.  
For me, holding in the intake valve to relieve compression has worked best.

The old Ford starter idea has merit; it too would work.
