Here is the info I have;
Pull your plugs and get your hand crank out,
Put it in 3rd Gear.
Make a mark on the jacked up tire at 12 o'clock and crank the engine over exactly 2 revolutions. When you hit exactly two revolutions, have a friend grab hold of the tire so it cannot move, or set the hand brake or whatever.
See where the mark on tire ends up:
Between 11 and 12 o'clock, ratio is 4.11
Between 12 and 1 o'clock, ratio is 3.78
Between 1 and 2 o'clock, ratio is 3.54
These are from notes of the procedure that I have taken from another Barner's post.

How does that even work? If you had a 4:1 ratio and you turned the crank two revolutions, you would only have turned the tire half a turn.
