Question B206 Start Questions

Hey,

I just want to check my understanding of the B206 start as I'm finalizing the code for a sim version of it, and am not sure of what exactly ignites the fuel.

Basically, I'm wondering if the when the throttle is moved past the idle stop, injecting fuel, if ignitors are on only if the starter button is depressed.

So, if you had the battery on, and did not depress the starter (and assuming a cold engine), opened the fuel valve and opened the throttle past the stop, if the fuel introduced would ignite causing an engine fire.

If not, and you then closed the throttle, how long would you have to wait to push the starter to avoid either a fire, or hot start?

Finally, I'm wondering what the "IGN ENG", and "START ENG" breakers do/control.

Thanks for your input.

Patrick
