Mornin Gary, Wellllllllllllll without doing any calculations IT SEEMS TO ME IT WOULD TAKE ONE ENORMOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS HIGH RATED CAPACITOR BANK, perhaps the giant ones you see up on power lines to offset the inductive reactance of the starter motor.
However, your thinking and theory has merit. When you initially switch an inductor (starter motor) into the circuit IT RESISTS ANY SUDDEN CURRENT CHANGE its initillay (time = 0 +) like an open circuit. However, a capacitor is sort of opposite, it RESISTS ANY SUDDEN VOLTAGE CHANGE, its initially (time = 0 + ) a short circuit.
If an inductor and capacitor are in paralell, the majority of the initial current goes to the capacitor (its initially a short circuit, later an open to DC) and then once its charged up, the current goes instead to the inductor (its initially an open but later more like a short subject to its DC resistance)

Today's Featured Article - Tractor Traction - by Chris Pratt. Our first bout with traction problems came when cultivatin with our Massey-Harris Pony. Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
