I rarely started it with boost pumps on.
How do you manage that? The latest I heard from Bell was to not pull the CB's on shutdown----on the L4 we use the fuel valve to disconnect the boost pump from the battery......ergo, with the fuel valve open---the boost pumps will be running.

I ALWAYS do a full throttle check with battery, fuel valve on etc---never hjad a problem with hot starting.
