Visual Inspection of the IDG for Oil Leakage Engine Static and Check of the Electrical Circuits
WARNING:
BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU DO WORK ON THE ENGINE PARTS AFTER THE ENGINE SHUTDOWN. USE APPLICABLE THERMAL GLOVES. THE ENGINE PARTS CAN STAY HOT FOR ONE HOUR AFTER SHUTDOWN AND CAN BURN YOU.
WARNING:
WEAR GOGGLES, INSULATED GLOVES AND OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHES.
HOT OIL CAN BURN YOUR EYES AND SKIN.
IF OIL TOUCHES YOUR EYES OR SKIN, GET MEDICAL AID.
CAUTION:
DO NOT OPERATE THE IDG:
- IF IT CONTAINS TOO MUCH OIL
- IF IT DOES NOT CONTAIN ENOUGH OIL
CAUTION:
DO NOT USE SOLVENTS THAT CONTAIN CHLORINE TO CLEAN THE EQUIPMENT (PUMP, HOSES, TANK AND FUNNEL) USED TO FILL THE IDG WITH OIL.
CHLORINE CONTAMINATION OF THE OIL CAN CAUSE FAST DETERIORATION OF THE OIL AND WILL DECREASE THE LIFE OF THE IDG.
1. Reason for the JobTo make sure that the IDG oil system is serviceable and to do a check for leakage, stains or wet areas.
To make sure that the wiring harnesses are in the correct condition.

A. Oil Leak Test
(1) On the 753970A CSD IDG SYSTEM LEAK TESTER, close the drain valve, refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
(2) Set the shut-off valve to OFF and close the regulator valve to prevent pressure release to the IDG fitting, refer to the GSE manufacturer'sinstructions.
(3) Remove the blanking cap from the pressure fill half-coupling.
(4) Connect one end of the pressure fill hose (1) of the 753970A CSD IDG SYSTEM LEAK TESTER to the pressure fill half-coupling (pressure fill port) of the IDG, refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
(5) Connect the other end of the 753970A CSD IDG SYSTEM LEAK TESTER to a AIR SOURCE 2 BAR (30 PSI) - REGULATED, FILTERED, DRY, refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
(6) Turn the shut-off valve to ON and adjust the regulator valve to a pressure of 1.72 bar (24.9465 psi) on the system pressure gauge, refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
(7) Turn the supply valve to OFF to keep the air in the system. , refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
(9) Do a visual inspection of these components if there is (are) leak(s):
1 Tubing
If necessary, fill the oil tank (Ref. AMM TASK 12-13-24-612-804).
(11) If you cannot find the cause of the leak visually, do a check of the system for for leaks. To do this, use soap suds or equivalent leak detector fluid:

(6) Turn the shut-off valve to ON and adjust the regulator valve to a pressure of 1.72 bar (24.9465 psi) on the system pressure gauge, refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
(7) Turn the supply valve to OFF to keep the air in the system. , refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: Pressure will become stable in the system, with no leak. When the IDG case is vented:
(8) Monitor the system pressure for five minutes for confirmation of the leak. - The pressure will decrease to a lightly lower value because of the vent valve setting.
- The pressure will stay at this setting.
(9) Do a visual inspection of these components if there is (are) leak(s):
NOTE: There can be different signs of leaks:
(a) IDG fittings for leakage: - Droplets of oil
- Wet areas around connections, oil stripes on the hoses
- Stains or discoloration which can occur when oil or grease touches very hot surfaces.
- Pressure fill port
- Overfill drain port
- Oil-in and oil-out ports (cooling circuit interface with the IDG).
- Case drain plug.
- The pressure fill port:
. Replace the pressure fill half-coupling (Ref. AMM TASK 24-21-51-000-806) and (Ref. AMM TASK 24-21-51-400-806). - The overflow drain port:
. Replace the overfill drain half-coupling (Ref. AMM TASK 24-21-51-000-806) and (Ref. AMM TASK 24-21-51-400-806). - The oil-in and oil-out ports (cooling circuit interface with the IDG) or case drain:
. Replace the related fitting.
1 Tubing
- No cracks are permitted on tubes, hoses and tubes coupling nuts.
You must replace all tubes that are not in these limits.
- Replace the broken or cracked brackets.
- Replace the worn clamps.
- Install nuts and bolts, if missing.
- Tighten the loose nuts and bolts.
- Oil-in and oil-out ports (cooling circuit interface with the
- cooler)
- Drain plug
- Body of the cooler.
If you find a leak, replace the IDG oil cooler (Ref. AMM TASK 73-11-50-000-802) and (Ref. AMM TASK 73-11-50-400-802).
If necessary, fill the oil tank (Ref. AMM TASK 12-13-24-612-804).
(11) If you cannot find the cause of the leak visually, do a check of the system for for leaks. To do this, use soap suds or equivalent leak detector fluid:
- Put a container below the drain valve 753970A CSD IDG SYSTEM LEAK TESTER and open the valve to release the pressure, refer to the GSE manufacturer's.
- Make the necessary corrections and put the system back to an operational configuration.
- Do the check again to make sure that you repaired the leak.
NOTE: If oil collects in the coalescing filter, use the drain valve at the bottom of the filter housing to drain the oil, refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: If you use an AIR SOURCE 2 BAR (30 PSI) - REGULATED, FILTERED, DRY, it is necessary to install a plug on the port for the compressed air source, refer to the GSE manufacturer's instructions.
