Bonanza Engine Start - Losing the will to live!

[Malcolmt16]

I cannot start the engine.
I have followed the NOPs to the LETTER. Dozens of times.
I have watched several YT videos and followed them to the LETTER.
But still this thing will NOT start.

I am not a novice. I tend to think I know what I am doing. Don't ask if I have fuel or I have the fuel switched on.

Can someone help please because frustrating is not the word!

Thanks!

try leaving the aux pump on high for longer than the 3 seconds suggested. I usually have to do like 15-20 seconds and then it's good to go.

@malcolmt16 After running the pump for about 3-4s, turn the throttle to 0, start the engine and give a little throttle during the start.
Do not forget to turn the alternator on before starting.

Thanks to everyone for the help. Your suggestions worked!

Although, I do find it puzzling why they issue instructions that do not work?!!
