Here in Southern Indiana, the terms "cranks" and "turns over" are the same and indicate that the starter motor will make the engine rotate. The term "fires" means the engine starts as in "it's a great car, fires right up!". Part of diagnosing problems whether over the phone or on a forum, is determining the true meaning of the nomenclature being used. Same goes for my job (computer field)... 10 different people will describe the same problem with 10 different terms. Language is a bitch. :)
