grafspee Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 What is this feature. i have never used that in both planes. I don't know about BMW801 but jumo213 is direct fuel injected, so classical priming doesn't make any sense here System specs: I7 14700KF, Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Elite, 64GB DDR4 3600MHz, Gigabyte RTX 4090,Win 11, 48" OLED LG TV + 42" LG LED monitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msalama Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 but jumo213 The D9 has a priming pump regardless. Left console towards the rear. I usually give her about 10 pushes just because.

Unless priming pump is injecting something different then standard fuel maybe some highly explosive for example mercury fulminate :P System specs: I7 14700KF, Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Elite, 64GB DDR4 3600MHz, Gigabyte RTX 4090,Win 11, 48" OLED LG TV + 42" LG LED monitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msalama Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I don't know what it injects into the manifold, but AFAIK the real thing had one as well. Ether? The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grafspee Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 I don't know what it injects into the manifold, but AFAIK the real thing had one as well. Ether? Probably right, something flammable and volatile :) System specs: I7 14700KF, Gigabyte Z690 Aorus Elite, 64GB DDR4 3600MHz, Gigabyte RTX 4090,Win 11, 48" OLED LG TV + 42" LG LED monitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzles Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Maybe it's simply to pressurise the fuel lines? I'm sure someone more enterprising than myself today could go find the engine manual and have a look... Fancy trying Star Citizen? Click here!

msalama Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Maybe it's simply to pressurise the fuel lines? IIRC the correct sequence is to switch on the fuel pumps to pressurize the feeder lines first, then push the handpump 10 times in order to inject fuel into the manifold. So I don't think it's that.

Art-J Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Well, DB engines were fuel injected as well, but we've got good old priming pump in the 109 too, don't we? There must have been some reason for that. i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadCat1381 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 That is what I found in the A8 manual: https://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=227831&stc=1&d=1581957946 I think at the low RPM on start up, the engine driven injector pump just doesn't provide enought fuel or pressure to get the combustion to work correctly.
