(See 15.0)
9.3.1 Full
Power
Check
Set WOT and note rpm achieved in relation to the minimum acceptable value as defined in the
aircraft operating manual. Check that all instrumentation is functioning and that all parameters
are within limits. Check that single ignition drops are less than 300 RPM at 6200 RPM.
9.3.2 Idle
Check
Fully close the throttle and note rpm; it should be 2300 RPM ± 100 RPM. Adjustment, if
required, is by the throttle stop screw on the throttle body. For method, and precautions, see
the aircraft manufacturer’s manual.
9.3.3
Stopping the Engine
It is usual to idle the engine for 2 to 3 minutes before stopping (to dissipate internal heat prior
to shut down) [see aircraft manufacturers operating manual].
Switching off either the ECU power, or ignition switches, or the fuel pumps will stop the
engine. The latter gives a short run down and dissipates pressure in the fuel lines.
