[T3] RPM's "Pop" starting

[Keith Park]

I pop start my square several times a day, no reason to use the starter when
the driveway is inclined and the car is shut off when im stuck in traffic on
the hills going to work, so I just pop it back on when I reach the bottom.

I use second... and with FI, I only need about 1mph or 1 compression stroke,
it lights right back up!

*I would have thought the higher the gear (2nd or 3rd), the higher the
engine RPM's would be, when you "popped" the clutch.  ???

In the '50's, I had a '39 Plymouth - (3-speed manual tranny) - and we always
used 2nd gear when we had a "non-start", low voltage battery.  Which was
pretty OFTEN due to dome-light, radio, headlights being left on.
