iRocco Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Is this a bug? Matt had to do it in the startup video and the needle went up, but you can just start it without having to prime the engine now. Haven't seen a bug report in the appropriate section yet.

reyco1987 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I've been wondering kind of the same thing. I don't know how realistic this is, but at first when the 109 came out, the fuel pressure gauge would actually indicate a rise in pressure as you actuated the fuel primer...but now the gauge doesn't move at all when priming. Would love to know as well.:huh: [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 29 October 2009 CGNR-1705 / USMC Cobra * * * * * * * * * Semper Memoria, Semper Vigilens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nooch Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 They need to update the manual too. Last time I checked, about three months ago, the start up procedure was outdated and simply didn't work. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flying-Kane Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 You don't need the primer handle for normal engine starts. This was changed long time ago (it's a feature of the real aircraft). The fuel pressure needle rises only after engine start. All you have to do is: -push curcuit breakers (A100, V100, A101, E101, F135, F211) -open both fuelpumps -throttle 1cm forward -both magnetos M1+M2 -call crew for starter -when crew says ready -> pull starter handle AMD Ryzen 7 5800X | 32GB DDR4 RAM | NVidia RTX4080 | MSI B550 TOMAHAWK | Creative X-Fi Titanium | Win 10 Pro 64bit | Track IR4 Pro | Thrustmaster Warthog | Saitek Rudder Pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what's the correct procedure for the real aircraft? Use the primer handle or not?

MAD-MM Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 The Primer in the 109 as the 190 is only for low Temperatur, both Engine are Fuel Injected normal Operation dont need any Primer..
