Which is exactly why I crank it for a few seconds, with the ignition disabled, if it's been sitting for a while, and when I see the needle blip up some, only then do I enable the ignition and fire it up. I don't see how that could possibly put any wear at all on the engine. And considering that, if we're lucky, we'll do that a couple to three times a year at most, we'll all be dead before we've even hit a hundred of those types of cranks.
