I saw the other post with using a ring gear and starter for reverse, but are there any other good ideas since that post was over 3 years old. I was wondering if anybody thought of reversing the polarity of the engine starter to just move it a few feet. I know you are not supposed to rotate an engine backwards, but it might be okay for short bursts? However I did see a post where someone rolled backwards and it destroyed his engine.
While we are on the topic of engine damage. I was thinking of installing a drift brake, I assume as long as I don't stall the engine, it should be okay?
