Before all these fancy electronic devises to retard timing while starting we just flooded the engine a bit. Pump throttle pedal 2 or 3 times (with key on for injected engines) then start her up.
A flooded engine will not try to start until it purges excess fuel and this allows cranking RPM to increase without load of firing agianst starter.
If starter is just bad and dragging then replace starter and your off and running. Amp check of cranking amps should be below 100 amps on most, if up to 200 or more she is JUNK !
