I will go with genghis of doing it using a flow.

Its ok remembering a drill when you only fly one type.

If you fly multiple types you will be messing around trying to find the next one in the list.

Personally i always used to do a right to left mainly due to the layout of a tommy.

So from memory it was

primer, mixture, swap fuel tank, carb heat, fuel pump, mags.

Then hand back on the throttle whole lot takes less than 3 seconds to run through.

Its amazing though when a student does get carb icing for the first time it must be over half of them turn the carb heat off after it starts running even rougher.
