On restart no prime or wobble, just pump the throttle during start until it catches. ...or it could be the incantations I chant.

I think everyone has their own deal on starting their particular engines hot or cold. Again referring to Chinese manual. After you have pulled your engine through minimum 9 blades for hydraulic lock check, in summer 5-6 slow primes (pull up slowly on the prime knob to allow fuel to be pulled into the chamber) then pull through 5-6 times. In winter, 7-9 primes and pull through 7-9 times. Throttle set 1" +/- forward of idle in both cases. Before starting, pull up on the primer and as you hit the start button, push the primer back down. In both cases you will want to see excess fuel drippng from your clean kit drain ( if you have one and if not, WHY NOT) before you start pulling you blades after the priming. Everyone is going to have their own refinement on starting especially with number of primes, blade pulls and throttle position. I am only saying what works for me and my engine. And for those that have electric primers, they may have a totally different primming procedure proceedure!

If I taxi to fuel after flight and start right away I do not prime and it starts immediately. After an hour it will need just a little prime.

Starts cold perfectly, but difficult to start warm. .018 to .022, but personally I never go bigger than .020 Caution about pumping the throttle to start. As you run your air supply lower and lower, you stand a better chance of getting a small backfire which can come right back through the supercharger and ignite excess fuel in the carb. It blows out a nice blast of flame and unburnt fuel. Ask me how I know this.
