I can startup the P47 only with control E
cannot get it done with the normal procedure.
could anyone help and see if I overlook something.
start with battery
check fuel /open canape/mixer full rich/crack the throttle/push the prop ahead
put a little oil into fuel
switch magnetos
outsite temp =15 plus celc
pump 2-5 times
keep the starter left and wait till winding up
switch to the right
cannot get it running

I tried to raise the torque in the piston from 0.1 to 1.5 but it didnot help

You should not modify anything, the aircraft with Accusim works perfectly by default.
Have you installed the two patches for that plane ?
Are you sure the "automatic mixture" setting in the FSX Realism settings is disabled ?
Have you set your throttle position to 15-20% before starting ?
To start from cold and dark, I always follow this procedure:
1- check engine status
2- check fuel/oil etc... levels
3- battery On
4- RPM 100%
5- mixture full rich or auto rich
6- select MAIN fuel tank
6- primer 4 or 5 times
7- magnetos BOTH
8- throttle 15 to 20%
9- start engine after 15 seconds start-wheel-spinning.
Sometimes, I need two tries to start the engine successfully.

yes everything done except the fuel handle was not set correctly
thanks for the fast reply
it works now fine
