Sea King HAS 2 cockpit switches

I did (most of !!) the 706 NAS Sea King course over 30 years ago and have recently bought the excellent Haynes Sea King "Owners Manual". Reading this has prompted a few questions which elude my memory!


1 What is the function of the start delete switches?

2 Is there an "ignition" switch per engine separate from the start button on the SSLs?

3 Is there a "computer" switch per engine - fuel computer perhaps?

4 What is the "flight idle" switch? What does it do ?

5 What does "check nulls" mean in the checklist?

6 The hand written notes I have found from those far off days include "HGS" checks between the Head Check section and Start Engine 2 section - What is HGS and what are those checks?

All assistance gratefully received !
