max and min temp and pressure for spit?

I believe that the low speed engine cutout shuts down the engine when engine is running idle. So only use it when you have landed and calling it a day

I don't know but isn't that what the magneto's were for? I don't think that they would need a low engine cut out if it operated as you state.

Im only guessing but
If you switch off the engine thru your magnetos I think the turning slowing engine would still draw fuel into it, Unburnt fuel in cylinders is not good in a parked engine

If you close the fuel cocks it will dry out the fuel lines, not good for restarting

However in the game I just switch off the magnetos.

AFTER LANDING17. (i) After taxying in, set the propeller control fullyback and open up the engine sufficiently to changepitch to coarse. DH20°(ii) Allow the engine to idle for a few seconds, thenpull the slow-running cut-out and hold it out untilthe engine stops.(iii) Turn OFF the fuel cocks and switch OFF the ignition


got this from pilot notes for spitfire IIa-b
