Problem fuel waste residue

[cromsan]

After the  fuel waste message , I do what RobW05 says:

"- Accelerator in cutting position.

- The ignition switch is off

- Ignition AUX BP

- Press and hold the start switch for 2 seconds, then release

- Wait 10 seconds

- Hold the start switch momentarily in the abort position, then release

Now all the residual fuel should have been cleaned and you can try another regular start-up procedure. "

 

 But I still get the message of fuel residue . I'm going to maintenance and repair it in the engine.

It keeps coming out. I have no other solution than to start with a new TBM900.

2 seconds is not long enough. According to the real pilot manual you need to motor for up to 15 seconds. I would say you are not clearing the combustion chamber. 

 

[RobW05]

The 2 seconds is just to initiate the starter sequence. He's dry motoring for more than 10 seconds after that which should be enough to clear the combustion chamber.

I have had a couple of times I have had to dry motor twice. A longer time definitely helps and as you can dry motor for up to 30seconds, particularly in hot weather where it is recommended in the pilot manual, it is worth a try.

Gracias, Tassierob y RobW05, así lo haré.
