They are finicky. You can run cool tank fuel to the fuel control unit with the electric pump but the injector lines and divider will remain heat soaked. They will start up on the first try with good technique.

Nothing better than hot starting a heat soaked, vapor locked continental with passengers. "Once I get them running it will be fine. Its just vapor lock. Trust me i'm a pilot"

Yeah that was a little too close for comfort..

Wont be able to make it. Closing on a house next Friday that we are going to put some work into... there goes all my weekends in september!
