RE: Starting gas and set up
Apologies for this, I have not seen the onboard starter manual.
However, I have seen MW54 and KJ66 started with the same technique with onboard starter. I am not sure what difference there is between the different starter mechanism's but I would have thought they would be very similar.
I am sure there is a good reason if Wren has said to do it like that.
Also, with my manual start version I have no problem with flames. I don't have to be very quick once fuel ramp has started and the gas and glow can stay on forever with no problems. It sounds odd that the onboard starter version would be that different.
