I was told once by Ron G during recurrency
training how they start the hot engines at OSH and SnF during the demo
rides. All knobs (throttle, prop, mixture) full in, touch the fuel
primer briefly to register a small squirt on the fuel flow guage (emphasis on
briefly), and crank the starter. Engine will start and pull back on throttle
to adjust. Option to temporarily pull back a bit on mixture (titrate to
starting) to help further lean the injection.
I use this at the pumps,
on hot days during restarts and anytime the temps are ridiculous. It
seems to work as advised.

Gents:
What have you found to be the best hot
start procedure for a TSIO 550, with mags, in an IVP? I'm not talking
immediately after engine shut down, but shut down on a hot tarmac after 30 to
40 minutes so the fuel lines are nice and hot and boiling the internal
fuel.
Thanks,
