October 14, 201312 yr Are you using the FO to read and check the checklists for you? That's the 'Call' feature coming with the plane. This should always lead to a proper startup. Your APU is already running, so you can't be far away. In case you have any hardware assigned to the mixture axis, make sure to have it set at rich. That's one of the few factors being able to maybe prevent successful engine starts. You can also press Ctrl-F4 I think. I don't recall from memory if your switch setting points to the APU bleed being on or off. Well, you need the bleed air, so it should be on.
