That needs the ignition to be switched on before it starts cranking, it then
won't stop cranking when you turn off the ignition, but does so when you
drop the handbrake.
Many years ago a diesel van belonging to a neighbour started cranking all by
itself which is something quite different, it proceeded to crawl across the
front gardens of the two houses next door trashing a couple of flower beds
in the process :o)
