Starting Engine Amplified
Hot Start
Within 20-30 min after shutdown the fuel manifold is adequately primed and the empty injector
nozzle lines will fill before the engine dies
After 30 min the vaporized fuel in the manifold will have dissipated and some slight “priming” could
be required
Advance mixture control promptly to 1/3 open when the engine fires and then smoothly to full rich
as power develops
Should the engine die after starting, turn on the auxiliary fuel pump temporarily and adjust the
throttle and/or mixture as necessary to keep the engine running
If over prime or flood the engine, turn off the aux pump, open the throttle from ½ to full open and
continue cranking with the mixture full lean. When engine fires, smoothly advance the mixture
control to full rich and retard the throttle to desired idle speed
o If Oil Pressure does not begin to indicate pressure within 30 seconds in the summer time
and approx. 1 min in very cold weather, stop the engine and investigate
