Unable to restart after "re-arm/refuel/repair".

[BBall757]

Greetings,

First of all, I would like to congratulate the entire team on an amazing simulation! "Bravo!" to you all!

Can you please investigate an issue I seem to be having?

After adding a "service area" fuel truck into an F-51D mission I made in the Task Editor (then, using the "IL2 Series Editor", I changed it from "Single Player" to "Cooperative"), I am unable to restart the aircraft following the "re-arm/refuel/repair" process. Side note: I flew the same mission in a "single player" environment with the only change being the addition of the "service truck" with the same results.

The re-arm and refuel are normal (I taxi to within the prescribed distance, get the "in the service area" message, stop and shut down the engine). I receive the appropriate messages to confirm that the appropriate actions are taking place, then always receive an "Engine oil temp outside rated range. Oil system maintenance in progress", followed by the same message regarding the "Coolant system". Side note: I have those systems set to "auto" in the options menu.

Following the "system is maintained" message for both, I attempt to restart the engine. When I get the "First engine start" message I also receive the notice that I am in a service are and to stop and shut down my engine. The engine start up appears normal only to have it go into a "shut down" mode after selecting the magnetos (the starter is never energized).

Am I doing something in error, or is this a bug? It is a wonderful option to re-fuel/rearm/repair, but rather worthless if one is unable to restart the machine.

Can you please investigate (mission files attached0

Thank you in advance, and again, congrats on an amazing product!

Update. 
 

I attempted the same mission switching my machine to the F-84E in the "IL-2 Series Editor"....no issues.

I also tried with the "no engine malfunctions" checked in the "Difficulty" screen. No difference. Mustang would rearm/refuel, but would get the same messages concerning the Oil and Coolant systems...and begin a start up seq, only to abort it.

It seems to be a Mustang issue.
