3.19 LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE (3.Sf) (continued)
Depending on the circumstances,
it may be advisable to make an off
(
airport landing while power is still available, particularlyif otherindications
of actual oil pressure loss, such as sudden increases in temperatures, or oil
smoke, are apparent, and an airport is not close.
If engine stoppage occurs, proceed with Power Off Landing.
3.21 LOSS OF FUEL FLOW/PRESSURE (3.5g)
The most probable cause of loss of fuel flow/pressure is either fuel
depletion in the fuel tank selected, or failure of the engine driven fuel pump.
If loss of fuel flow/ pressure occurs, check that the fuel selector is on a tank
containing fuel and turn ON the electric fuel pump.
If the problem is not an empty tank, land as soon as practical and have
the engine driven fuel pump and fuel system checked.
3.23 HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE (3.Sh)
An abnormally high oil temperature indication maybe caused bya low
(
oil level, an obstruction in the oil cooler, damaged or improper baffle seals, a
'
defective gauge, or other causes. Land as soon as practical atan appropriate
airport and have the cause investigated.
A steady, rapid rise in oil temperature is a sign of trouble. Land at the
nearest airport and let a mechanic investigate the problem. Watch the oil
pressure gauge for an accompanying loss of pressure.
3.25
ELECTRICAL FAILURE (3.5i)
Loss of alternator output is detected through zero reading on the
ammeter. Before executing the following procedure, ensure that the reading
is zero, and not mere\ylow, by actuating an electrically powered device, such
as the landing light. If no increase in the ammeter reading is noted,aJterna tor
failure can be assumed.
The electrical load should be reduced as much as possible. Check foran
open alternator field circuit breaker.
Next, attempt to reset the overvoltage relayby moving the ALTR switch
to OFF for one second and then to ON. If the trouble was caused by a
momentary overvoltage condition (16.5 volts and up) this procedure should
return the ammeter to a normal reading.
