Hello and welcome to the forums,

it sounds like you have not set your settings as in the manual. In this case that your auto mixture is turned on.

thanks,
Lewis

If you don't mind me asking what did it?

Did you have the auto mixture feature turned on? Mine wouldn't start either the other day in cold and humid weather. Better to say it wouldn't rev up and subsequently the engines would die due to fouled spark plugs. So I tried the autostart feature and the crew kept saying "engine 3 is starting". I had to reload the plane and that fixed the issue. I have auto mixture disabled.
