That is dangerous and really unneeded. A person has to get the gas out
of the crankcase too, not just the cylinder. To get the gas out of the
crankcase, you must pull the starter multiple times. Even then it must
sit and evaporate to get it into the "flammable range" ( air to fuel
ratio). Your way is even more difficult if the carb is still operating
and flowing more gas into the crankcase with every pull.
