Selecting HIGH BOOST/PRIME may clear the problem if vapor in the
injection lines is the problem or if the engine-driven fuel pump has
partially failed. The electric fuel pump will not provide sufficient fuel
pressure to supply the engine if the engine-driven fuel pump
completely fails.
Selecting the opposite fuel tank may resolve the problem if fuel
starvation or contamination in one tank was the problem.
Cycling the ignition switch momentarily from BOTH to L and then to R
may help identify the problem. An obvious power loss in single ignition
operation indicates magneto or spark plug trouble. Lean the mixture to
the recommended cruise setting. If engine does not smooth out in
several minutes, try a richer mixture setting. Return ignition switch to
the BOTH position unless extreme roughness dictates the use of a
single magneto.
If a partial engine failure permits level flight, land at a suitable airfield
as soon as conditions permit. If conditions do not permit safe level
flight, use partial power as necessary to set up a forced landing
pattern over a suitable landing field. Always be prepared for a
complete engine failure and consider CAPS deployment if a suitable
landing site is not available. Refer to Section 10,
for CAPS deployment scenarios and
landing considerations.
