pumping the acc peddle only pumps gas from the carb to the intake, if there 
is any. It does nothing to bring gas from the tank.
I perfer to crand an engine for 15-20 sec before it starts to give some oil 
a chance to start. I cringe when I hear people start an engine and bring it 
to 3,000-5,000 RPM.
30-45 sec of cranking will not hurt a starter. Much after that it begins to 
overheat and may start spitting solder from it's connections.
