Thanks for the replys, IŽll continue to do it as I was tought in the first place, I was just wondering if anyone had another profen method.

Someone I spoke to suggested also to try and start with mixture leaned, it could be that the fully rich mixture is a bit to rich for start...

I used to fly a R172K with a 6 cylinder, fuel injected engine. Starting that one cold was truly some kind of a black magic, and moving the throttle and mixture in some random, mysterious ways often used to do the trick So I guess a tiny DA20 should not be so hard
