PA-28-181, ARCHER III
SECTION 3 - EMERGENCY PROCEDURES (continued)
Aircraft Engine Power Loss
During an engine failure the pilot may elect to attempt an engine restart. During
this time large voltage drops may cause the PFD to lose power and reinitialize.
During this initialization process the PFD may not be able to complete a fast
alignment during flight and therefore the pilot may have to obtain aircraft
attitude and aircraft control using the standby instruments.
• Refer to the Emergency Section of the Pilot's Operating Handbook.
• If the PFD is able to perform fast alignment, when prompted by the PFD:
• Maintain straight and level flight
• If engine does not restart, maintain wings level and appropriate aircraft
speed.
• Press the fast erect button.
• If the PFD was not able to perform fast alignment, maintain aircraft control
with reference to the standby instruments for aircraft attitude information.
In case of engine failure, minimize the use of the starter
and turn off all non-essential electrical equipment to
preserve battery capacity.
Loss of Fuel Flow
Electric Fuel Pump ..........................................................................................ON
Fuel Selector ..............................................Check on tank containing usable fuel
Engine Driven Fuel Pump Failure
Throttle ..................................................................................................RETARD
Electric Fuel Pump ..........................................................................................ON
Throttle....................................................................................RESET as required
If normal engine operation and fuel flow is not immediately
re-established, the electric fuel pump should be turned OFF.
The lack of fuel flow indication while the electric pump is
on could indicate a leak in the fuel system or fuel
exhaustion. If fuel system leak is verified, switch fuel
selector to OFF.
