Ive never gotten those engines to rotate more than a full turn with this method, let alone start. A properly operating time-delay module will theoretically delay engagement of the starter (EDIT: ignition signal) long enough for the above-described buffoonery particular to these engines to run its course. Never disable the time-delay module for the 4.3 and 4-181 engines for this reason. Make sure it is operating properly.
