Engine start issue

[Sailor]

When using fast start or letting the engineer start the engines only one engine will start. The engineer constantly says that the oil pressure is rising and then the oil is ok. He says this over and over.
Also the gauges for that engine Show the needle swinging back and forth. When I manual start they will all start, but the engineer still goes on and on about the oil pressure and the gauges for all the engines swing wildly.

sounds like a corrupted .dat file, try deleting B377.dat,(only b377.dat, NOT the whole folder) b377.dat can be found at User Name/My Documents/A2A/FSX/377. (in Windows 7) when you start up fsx, and select the b377, and start a flight, the sim will create a new one.
also, if you want to be careful, instead of deleting it, you can move the file to another location like the desktop or the like and this will make the sim make a new file.

Ok I figured it out. The realism mixture was set to auto. I could have sworn I had it to manual.

Yes, sounds like it was the auto mixture setting being set incorrectly. Glad you got it sorted.

thanks,
