Chapter 3 Flashcards
If the engine is liquidity cooled what instrument will the plane have
Coolant temp guage
Oil pressure should register in how many sec after start
30 normally 60 if it’s cold
If oil temp is rising fast check
Oil pressure
Oil temp usual normal range
180-212
If Oil temperature is in normal range from 180-220 what does it help with
Water Vapor evaporate from oil
Why is the most failing equipment on plane
Vacuum pump Expected to fail every 500 hours
Why is cylinder head temp gauge important
It can tell u if high temp, lower the resistance of metals and pre ignition
Too low of temp will indicate its not vaporizing the fuel
What will happen with low oil temp
Engine damage may take place
What will happen with high oil temp
May result in damaged seals, resulting in oil loss
Egt temp may vary bcz
Bcz of fuel to air ratio mixture change, can also b used for regulating fuel air mixture
When we use egt for fuel air mixture what can be reduced
Fuel consumption
For hand propping what should u be careful about
A qualified person must remain at the controls off the aircraft
Or it must be prevented from moving forward
Reduce the engine thrust as soon as possible
Vacuum pump is run by your
Engine
Vacuum pump give power to
Attitude indicator, heading indicator and inflate de ice boots
Battery is usually mounted
Under passenger seat
