Lots of different techniques out there but this one has never failed me with IO-520s anyway. Mixture Idle Cut off, Throttles Fully open. HP fuel pump on for 30 seconds. Then straight away carry out the cold start procedure. Will get lots of cold fuel through the lines and i've never had a mis-start using said procedure.

I'm sure there will be other techniques, but this one seems less hit and miss.
