before 1919 they had to crank them by hand....after they had electric starters....the timing advance on the steering wheel in the up position and the throttle about a quarter down. place gear lever in center position & spin engine a time or two with choke on.... turn on key and spin again push in choke and it will start.....be careful the car will drift forward...pull timing lever all the way down and close the throttle it's running. note when hand cranking never put your thumb on the around the handle or you might get a broken wrist
