Probably not much, the pump doesn't really work at that speed. Most specs are for idle speed.

At cranking speed you will get a spurt....pause....spurt....pause.....

We did it once in the middle of the woods to get some gas out of the truck and into the four wheeler, and it took almost 15 seconds of cranking to fill one of the small 16 oz gaotrade bottles.....

Running

I swapped my fuel tank selector back and forth few time's and she started pumping in to bottle. Fired her up.Sometimes it work's crazy. Think it's time for motor redo after 305,000 mile's. The old Winsdor has been good. I bought it new . Thank's Guy's for help.
