What's your favourite electronic simulator? I uses multisim but have often problems with them first of oscillators. What you suggest which is the best one ?

With most simulators, you can get an LC oscillator to start by setting an initial condition (.IC) such as a voltage across a capacitor or the current through an inductor. Some experimentation is required to get good settling to steady-state.
Another technique is to set up a small PWL current through the inductor which goes abruptly to zero shortly after the sim starts.
An balky RC multivibrator can also be started with a non-zero initial condition on a capacitor.
