RE: correct procedure
At Liberty bell jet rally, we had a problem with a turbine, and after a few non starts, Mr Wilcox was there to help, told us to hold up the turbine to drain it. but also mentioned to hold it up in both directions.
the end caps tend to hold extra kero on non starts. ....
so drain it out the back of the turbine and also drain it out of the front of the turbine.
I could not believe how much kero came out the front when we held it upside down. would have made for a very big hot start.....
