Sadly no.
Unless I tip-toe extremely easy and having a looong coffeebreak at hold-short I will always blow the engines.

Blenheim being useless keeps IL2:CoD uninstalled on my machine as I'm not impressed by the airQuake that this sim represents today.
Mmm, no. I have more than 50 hours online (ATAG) with Blenheim, blow up dozen ships - one Minensuchoot, parking veicles, artilhery, and a successful level bomber from 3000 ft, and 3 confirmed kills (110 and 109) plus 2 maneuver kill (109).

To fly my advice is:

1st forget these "historical Blenheim notes"...

Put 20/30% of fuel (more than sufficinet for online action) select Inner tanks, start engines, zeroed trims, dont open radiator flaps and dont await ~5/10 minutes to oil temp rising, force engine throttle (you notice when engine is to stalling) to rapid rising temps, when you are in 50% of throttle, open radiadors and take of. My record is 3:40s.
Gear up, prop coarse, trim to level flight or climb. If you dont use 100% throttle,no need to check temps every minute.
