Crank (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rev

(Other definitions for rev that I've seen before include "One turn of an engine, in short" , "Run (engine) quickly" , "Speed up engine (colloq.)" , "Clergyman, or woman (abbr)" , "Motor rotation, in short" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
