One morning I was going to try to start up an Esqual which has the Jabiru
3300 in it as well and taxi down to the EAA hangar there at SYI. I was
going to show the plane a little at the monthly EAA fly-in breakfast and
then go fly some time off of it afterwards. It was a bitterly cold morning,
in the 20's if I remember right. I couldn't get it to start. Later on I
told Pete about this and he told me to start it with the choke on, only
works when throttle closed. I tried that and despite a weak battery at this
point it fired right up. I was used to leaving the throttle cracked open to
start, but that doesn't work well for the Jabiru. Live and learn, Brian W.
