Out here we call it WET MOTORING.....The Engine is motored by the Starter,the Ignition CBs are pulled out & fuel levers moved to permit fuel flow.Normally done to purge the preservative fluid or for checking fuel through the FCU.

Its always followed by a DRY MOTORING,before Engine startup to avoid a HOT START.
