@ daniel69ok: I have a 177RG and my procedure (as per the checklist) is. "throttle open 1/4", fuel pump on, mixture: 3-5 GPH on fuel flow gage, mixture: idle cut off, throttle closed, fuel pump off, start"

have you ever seen a flying disk/ufo when up in your aero machine?

[daniel69ok]

The correct proceedure for the cardinal is this:

Fuel pump ON

Mixture RICH until rise in fuel pressure (2-5 seconds)

Mixture LEAN

START

As soon as engine starts, Mixture RICH

Fuel pump OFF.

HI ...Love your Cardinal Instrument Flight

If your cardinal has a fuel injected engine, tell me on engine start do you leave the fuel pump on or off. I am just about to get endorsed on a cardinal in a few days .

Pump on Mixture Rich

Wait for fuel pressure to indicate a slight rise.

Pump off, Mixture Idle Cut Off.

Then Start, Mixture slowly forward as Engine catchs.
