PS5 Starting Procedure

[harleygaz]

Hi. I know I've seen somewhere a process for starting with a PS5 but I can't find it now. My O-360 doesn't seem to like to start and I think I jave the procedure wrong. I'm setting throttle, mixture rich, electric pump for abut 15 seconds, mixture full lean, hit the starter pump still on. On Sunday it took about seven attempts of about 10 seconds each on the starter to fire (and as we all know 10 seconds cranking feels like forever!). he had been sitting for two weeks, mixture just aft of middle to protect the diaphragm. Fuel off. She dos turn over slow but has a shower of sparks so cranking speed shouldn't be an issue. She's in for annual right now but I know the compressions are good as they were checked on the pre-purchase inspection in September. So, is my procedure correct? If so any other suggestions? And no, a full injection system is not in the budget yet!
