Steve Robertson wrote: As to your question about where the engine gets its fuel to hot start ... Even though you killed the engine with the mixture control, a bit of fuel will still leak out of the injector lines and into the intake after the engine is shut down. Interesting. Since the reason usually advanced for using the mixture to shut down is that the engine will be starved for fuel and consequently will not fire if the prop is moved on the ground, it seems that fuel injection is less safe than carburetion. At least in this regard. George Patterson None of us is as dumb as all of us.
