When I cut the engine on my P-51C (FSDS), the propeller stops and then starts rotating in the opposite direction (medium speed).  Why is it doing this, and how can I stop it from doing it ?

Seems like when I was experimenting with Air and water cooled engines in CFS2 .cfg files or air files (That was a long time ago). I made a P51 rotate like that.If I remember right air cooled goes 1 way and water cooled turns the other.Have you changed any files? try an air file from another 51.If it works compare the difference. If it does not work ignore this !

It's definitely the AIR file and nothing to do with the model.

I fixed it long ago on one model by cutting and pasting the engine section from a similar aircraft to the one I had the problem with.

Sorry I can't be more specific though.
