Folks, a "wet start" is caused by either an improperly aligned fuel selector, or the pilot putting the throttles in the wrong position before starting the engine. It's simply too much fuel pooling in the burner cans before or during start (hence the "wet") and is characterized by long flames coming out the back.

The fix is to advance to full throttle, which blows the rest of the fuel out the back, burning the fuel.

A wet start is NOT an intentional procedure, and can be dangerous if it's not detected and corrected, and the correction can be dangerous, too, if someone is anywhere near the back of the engine!
