NOTES:
1. If engine fails to achieve a normal start, assume it to be flooded. Crank engine
over with throttle wide and mixture in Idle Cut Off, if engine fires immediately
retard throttle and advance mixture to full rich, otherwise repeat above start
procedure.
2. If the engine has been operating and is still hot, but has been shut down for
more than a few minutes, fuel in the fuel lines may have vapourised making
starting more difficult. Priming the engine again should purge any remaining
fuel vapour.
