Default RE: cant get 160 booster started

maxT The exhaust gas temperature exceeds the value specified under LIMITS 36:EGT-OFF.
Reasons may be:
➔ Large air bubbles in the fuel supply system
➔ A fuel puddle in the turbine
Solution: Hold a cloth against the engine intake and tilt the engine or the aircraft model
upright with the intake facing down, so the fuel flows out of the engine into the cloth.
Caution: Take care not to pollute the starter motor and/or the clutch!
➔ The clutch rubber of the starter motor is oily or worn out.
Solution: Carefully clean it with a cotton bud and glass cleaning agent.
