Describe The Investigation And Remedial Action Required If The Engine Turns On Air But Fails To Fire On Fuel ?

Answer»

If the engine fails to fire on fuel the following points WOULD be investigated, and remedial action taken.

  • Check for any shut-downs still active. The shut down panel would be EXAMINED, and if a trip is active the cause would be investigated and system MADE operational. Following this the trip reset button would be pressed.
  • Low fuel pressure at the engine MANIFOLD. The fuel system would be investigated, and all valves checked to be opened, and all booster and supply pumps checked for running.
  • Sticking fuel linkage. The action of the fuel linkage would be checked during the start sequence. The fuel linkage should admit a “starting LEVEL” of fuel after the engine start sequence has been completed. The physical movement of the fuel linkage would be checked, and any mechanical friction reduced by lubrication.
