Gang,

A friend has heard that pulling the prop control out to make coarse
pitch aids starting (when the engine has had trouble starting).

Has anyone ever heard of this technique?


I can't imagine it changes anything with the prop at that speed. It may
have something to do with getting the oil flowing into the hub


At low RPM it shouldn't even do that.
