This is a view you seldom get to see as normally this view is obstructed by armored shutters that control the air flow through the engine compartment. We have removed them to get to the air intakes. As we prepare to start the engine after sitting for almost 20 years, we wanted to be able to snuff the engine out if it decided to run-away.
You first hear the oil primer pump building pressure in the oil system and then see the starter engage the flywheel. What you can't feel, is the whole tank shaking as the engine turns over.
