      I’ve used the drill (with plugs out) when I’m fogging my engines to spread the oil around.

      When I’ve tried to start engines with my Dewalt, I find that more often than not the flywheel nut comes off the crankshaft. The drag created by the accelerating flywheel outpacing the rpm of the drill causes the nut to unwind.

      I don’t want to be in the path of a 5 pound whirling dervish when It rises off the crankshaft.
