Repeat after me.................."Turning the steering wheel when the tires are off the ground doesn't do anything for changing which direction the car is going..."
well, not until the tires hit the ground again and are pointed in the wrong direction........

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Drag racing rule #1: when the steering feels light, hold the wheel tight!

I tried rubber isolators between the frame and pump, but it made little difference. I don't mind spinning the motor over to refill the carb(s), it allows time to build oil pressure, jmho..
