I once had a '48 Dodge farm truck. Those old gals can be cantankerous. It didn't have a hoist under the box, so when I dumped at the elevator, they had to use the elevator's hoist and raise the front end. Naturally, that flooded the engine and it wouldn't start.
There was a downgrade going out of the elevator, so the guys just got used to it. After I'd dumped, several would push it out the door and when I'd hit the down grade I'd put it in gear and pop the clutch.
There were several others at the time they had to do the same with. I finally got a special solenoid from J.C. Whitney where you ran two 6 volt batteries. When you hit the starter button, the solenoid would switch both batteries to series and hit the starter with 12 volts. When you released the starter button, it switched the batteries back to parallel and ran on 6 volts. That solved the problem.
