Oh well...
i recommend you fly with CEM and temp effects enabled, let´s say you´ll fly a few sorties with that off, you get used to it that you just have to adjust the throttle. Soon you decide you wanne get into the real thing. so now you not just have to adjust the throttle, but also proppitch, water-/oilrads and mixture.
at first its complex and weird, but after a time, when you know your plane, you don´t even look anymore at the instruments, you just know you have the right settings (ok, i´m still a bit away of that) .

For some reason when trying to fly CEM on, Spit engine does not start. Or it does, but stops after few seconds. I've tried more than one set of instructions (like those seen in recent Freycient's Spits vs Me109s video) and it just doesn't work. So you can't really practise CEM when the plane stays on ground. And based on comments I've read here in forums, I'm not the only one with these problems.

spit starts first time and stays running if you start it correctly

first switch on the fuel cock
set 15% -20% throttle
press i

it wont rev untill its about 60 degree on water temp , if you try it will cut out .

remember to open the rad once up to temp

water temp isn´t as important as it´s the oiltemp, which has to reach at least 35° (goes for the hurri as well) and for me the spit starts with 10% throttle as well, but 15% to 20% allows for faster warmup.

With those tips I was able to start the engine of SpitII, take off and land. I don't know if earlier the problem was using wrong amount of throttle. Still need to do the same with SpitI, but thanks a LOT guys!

It is pretty satisfying when you get the CEM figured out, I am still trying to find my way around the maps on the hardcore servers, but I guess it just takes air time to get yourself up to speed, untill then I just keep getting lost lol...
