cheers, i was working on it to get the video to show in the post and after much head scratching, i have it sussed :laughing:
the first link was a test and nothing to do with what i was trying to post

that works well

That’s useful, especially when my truck has a flat, trouble is it’s parked in such a way you cant jump it.

edit, DOH mines an auto :blush: :blush: :blush:

Not as daft as it looks, an old farmer next to me used to start his Fordson Major like that, he would push in the cold start, wrap a rope around the drive belt pulley and pull, it normally fired up first time. I don’t remember it starting on the button ever.

You can see the belt pulley just near the steps.
