    SECTION 4 CESSNA NORMAL PROCEDURES MODEL 172R (180 HP) Should the engine tend to die after starting, turn on the auxiliary fuel pump temporarily and adjust the throttle and/or mixture as necessary to keep the engine running. In the event of over priming or flooding, turn off the auxiliary fuel pump, open the throttle from 1/2 to full open, and continue cranking with the mixture full lean.

  • Page 114: Before Takeoff

    SECTION 4 CESSNA NORMAL PROCEDURES MODEL 172R (180 HP) BEFORE TAKEOFF WARM UP If the engine idles (approximately 600 RPM) and accelerates smoothly, the airplane is ready for takeoff. Since the engine is closely cowled for efficient in-flight engine cooling, precautions should be taken to avoid overheating during prolonged engine operation on the ground.
