    Dave;
    The Amish here do not use electric starters on their engines. They use a 
lot of diesels on their sawmills. Enos Wagler starts his Detroit 6-71 with a 
belted Honda of 27 horsepower, then uses the honda engine on his resaw and 
cutoff saw, run from a jackshaft. The only batteries they are permitted to 
use are non rechargable batteries for flashlights and lights on their 
buggies.
