You have to pull out the crank...
The crank walk problem is almost eliminated by bypassing the clutch switch so you can start the engine without pushing in the clutch. If you push in a heavy clutch with the engine off, it tends to push out the remaining oil that was held between the the thrust bearings and the crank/block which causes a dry start for the thrust bearings and can eventually wear them down enough to cause failure.
