I start the car in neutral with my left foot on the dead pedal and my right foot on the brake. I don't touch the accelerator pedal. Last week while looking through the Owner's Handbook again I noticed it says "Press accelerator pedal down approximately on quarter of it's total travel" while cranking. I did try this, and it didn't seem to make any difference. Dan W.
