Careful doing EFATO. Have your hands right there, plenty of students tried to feather the live engine no matter how many times we briefed, touch drilled etc... And I'm with aimpoint: always the mixture to simulate the failure
Now that is what I call famous last words; or put another way practicing bleeding. Mind you I am somewhat biased as one of my very old friends was burnt to death practicing pulling the mixture. Fate caught up with him after he had been pulling mixtures for years.
