MM 1000 start handle

[Sandun]

i never start the car using start handel - today try to do it - the handel can put to the engine nut and rotate also ,but i see the handel touch the rediator and when i rotate the handel, full weight hold the rediator - can not adjest rediator more - will it damedge rediator and water come out ?

If it's touching the radiator - DO NOT use it!! Either the engine is sitting too high or the radiator is sitting too low. Engine too high could be the front support towers wrong way round - and the radiator could be mounted too low - or perhaps a non-original 'pattern' radiator fitted at some time?
