Dealer told me I should turn the key, wait till dash lights go off and then crank. Is that true?

What do you guys do?

grab a friend, have him push the car, while you pop the clutch out to get it going. works every time. removing the starter motor saves weight.

There's a special way to start the RX-8 and it requires 6 steps.

Step 1: Put key in
Step 2: Pull parking brake up and down 6 times
Step 3: Step on the brake 3 times
Step 4: Step on the gas 4 times
Step 5: Scream at the top of your lungs
Step 6: Turn key to start engine

You must perform all this within 6 seconds or else your engine will fail prematurely.

My brain waves produce 12 cold crank amps that I've learned to transport through a certain frequency of electromagnetic wave (in the microwave range), so I just send it through the starter.

i think the point of that is the get the fuel pump going and warmed up. i do that on cold days, but really more out of superstition than any real effect

plain ole wanker

If I was you I would turn on the flux capacitor 1st go back in time kick the dealer in the *** then come back and then start your car.

Just start the car no need to wait for the lights to go out.
