Why would a VW 1600 Type 2 engine mount be in the way of a hand-cranked. engine starting handle!?!


My father also had a flanged starting-handle dog made, with three attachment holes, to fasten to the crankshaft of the VW 17/1800 Type 4 style air-cooled engine, with the crankshaft-mounted cooling fan. I have yet to learn whether the VW Type 4 style air-cooled industrial engine had this facility, but it would have been useful in the military application, as the motorised limber of the NATO 155 mm field-artillery howitzer.
