The third fuelcock is for crossfeeding. The Blenheim manual strongly suggests to leave it, unless it is really really necessary. Set mix to 'normal'. (almost all the way down) The manual also suggests to pull the boost cut-out lever and take off with +9Lb boost. But I think this fries the engine way too fast. Also, trim the nose slightly down for take-off, so the tailwheel comes off the ground more quickly.
The Blenheim is very sensitive in the engine management. I got the Blenheim V manual from somewhere here: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/oth...-systems-tech/ This is a diffrent aircraft then the flyable Blenheim IV in the game, but the eninges should be the same. Also, in the cross-country mission, you should reset the trim of your rudder as the first thing to do, before touching anything else. This seems to help!

this game needs a realism option "prewarmed engines", espacially for multiplayer

Is 109's classed as a problem half way across the channel? Be more clear please
 As I have said already, if water temp goes above 250 then ur engines will die and fail! The water temp is above the fuel cocks ... Until then, that's the only advice I can think off!

I have my rads fully open as I know the engines are very prone to overheating,and as soon as I have taken off and she is in level flight,on course etc I throttle back to about 75% so to be careful not to over rev or damage the engines but alas she dies on me,not 100% sure why. Obviously it's partly down to the engine temps because if I fly her with engine temps effects off,she does'nt do this.This is my last little wall to climb over and I do want to get this nailed.

Anyway ... The only other thing I can think of is that: A) over rev'in the engines ... ? B) maybe the oil temp is getting too low? Again, on my blackberry so havnt checked myself nor googled it all lol Cheers

this aircraft definately has glass engines. Most time I fly it (or try to) i either blow the engines or can't get em started..despite using the same technique every time. I fly full real, CEM+temp.
However I have found with the blenheim that you need to hold the start switch down for a while rather than just pushing it. This makes starting much easier I find. A manual would be handy so we can know the temp limits, boost and RPM limits as well would be most useful. Also, is it a two position propr or constant speed?

It's 2 position pitch, however, using a throttle quadrant, I can manipulate the pitch a little in the 40%-60% range. Effectively making this a variable pitch prop. One needs to be very subtle about it.
Been flying quite a few hours in the AC and I love the flying in it. Make sure your temps are 240 or lower. Above 250 your engine starts dying rather quickly. Been doing a lot of touch and goes lately with her. Great fun.
