yeah, handpump, actuated 3-5 times (plus low throttle) lets the engine start on first time, mostly.
On a side note: I fully understand one has questions while learning CEM. Nobody here fell from heaven as a perfect pilot right from the start. But what eludes me is that obviously nobody doesn't even bother to look at the countless threads on this subject so that he could find easy answers within seconds. Is it because forums are also hard to use? Or is it that everybody is just the special snowflake that deserves his own thread out of principle?
Side note no.2: It's an old tradition in Il-2 that you are supposed to figure out for yourselves how to "use" certain aircraft (but maybe a gauge explanation thingy like in Il-2 wouldn't hurt in CoD as well). The kicker on that is that you can do this by documentation for the real planes, given the realism of the simulation. This is a pretty interesting thing for many, including myself. Of course, asking is certainly not forbidden, it's actually encouraged provided one knows some netiquette imo.
