Guys,

 

I apologize for asking a question that has been answered many times in the past, but I can’t get to the archives, and I have read most of the responses anyway.  I have about 150 hours on my ES with an IO550N.  I recently flew for about an hour and shut down and tried to restart about 30 minutes later.  I have read and used hot start procedures in the past with reasonably good results.  I pulled the mixture to shut off and ran the high boost for 90 seconds, pushed the mixture in and boosted for 2-3 seconds, then back to shut off, then cracked the throttle and tried to start.  After several attempts with no results, I had to let the plane sit for about 30 minutes before I could get it started.  What am I doing wrong?  Suggestions?
