What are the chances of you editing your post to make it less painful to read?
The chances are very very good.Sorry i did not put enough thought into it and write it more simply and precise.

I should have mentioned that i meant if i had applied carb heat at the initial engine out and verified that it was not carb heat or anything on the magic engine out checklist and i would certainly never run a fuel tank dry.Got a wee bit of common sense i,E,common sense=genius in its working clothes.Was just wondering what are the chances of it starting or are there any studies about this if having completed the checklist flow.e.g the inverted L on the c172 or the engine out checklist and found everything ok.Thanks for the replies.Desmond.

With regards to attempting a restart.I remember an instructor saying once that the chances of the engine starting up again are something like one in a hundred.Does anyone know if this is reasonably accurate assumeing of course that the prob.is not carb.ice??

Agree.No one should ever count themselves above making a seemingly obvious mistake especially in avaition.I always use the Golden Hour rule and sometimes the golden hour and a half rule.= always have one hour or one and a half hours fuel remaining in the tanks when you land.
