Hello cliff707
Use the 'toggle' for the fuel levers. Hope that helps.
The idle/cutoff levers, the ones below the thrust levers, need to operate the "MIXTURE RICH" and "MIXTURE LEAN" controls for the specific engine. i.e. Mixture1 rich enables the fuel for engine 1, Mixture2 lean cuts the fuel for Engine2.Quote:

If you are using a non-latching button press you'll need to make it into a toggle switch by using the associated button flag in FSUIPC, and make it operate conditionally. This involves some FSUIPC INI file editing.
You'd be far better off using proper toggle switches, as then you'll be able to see which way they are set. Then you simply assign the RICH control to the "on" or "up" position ("press"), and the LEAN control to the "off" or "down" position ("release").
