The turbo's on the Clarks are several feet in diameter, so take a lot to get them spinning. I have run into this issue on all the Clarks I have worked on. The best way to get one online is almost like pulling a band aid off, you have to get them working hard as soon as possible without stalling them so the turbo functions on its own.
