Reno P-51 engine dies

I was just flying a Reno race in a private lobby. We were flying the unlimited class, I was using the “most default” plane/livery. Halfway the race my engine suddenly died. My throttle/prop/mixture lever were all in max position. Hitting the starter switch didn’t work. In this flight, 3 of 4 planes died.

In the race afterwards, I got reset due to flying high, after that my engine died again. I can’t remember if I got reset on the first race. In this race 2 out of 3 planes died again. Ctrl+E briefly spun the prop, after which is died again.

Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it?

I have dev-mode enabled, but didn’t change anything

Have you disabled/removed all your mods and addons?

No, but it’s Reno (I wish we could use different planes, e.g. GeeBee)

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

I have MSFS 2020 and when in flight training and on first flight my plane stops and falls uncontrollably. It also happens in other training sections

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

My understanding is that 6 of the 8 available P51’s (all but Voodoo & Strega) have a problem, whereby they spawn with too little fuel in the tank selected on the fuel selector switch.

It is a well known issue, “run out of fuel”. Assign a button of your choice to “add fuel quantity”
