Dry cranking Explanation: Dry cranking: The rotation and acceleration of the engine with the fuel system turned-off and, therefore, no fuel reaching the combustor. ... Itt: http://www.emeraldinsight.com/Insight/viewContentItem.do;jse... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 óra (2009-02-03 10:51:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Simply dry cranking is turning the engine on the starter without introducing fuel hence the term 'dry.' On some aircraft, in the case of a failure to ignite during a start cycle, a dry cranking cycle is completed before another attempt to start is begun to prevent a large buildup of unburnt fuel in the engine.
