Fuel remaining was my first guess, and looks like I was right. My oil  
pressure is in the 70-75 psi in cruise at 5200rpm. On idle it is  
below 30 like yours.

To start, I prime the engine 5 clicks than hit the starter. It  
sputters, than i turn on the cold start for a moment which brings it  
to life. If I don't hit the cold start it will not start? Whatever  
works? How's your cooling in flight without thermostat John?
