Subtask 71-00-00-790-051-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
CAUTION: NO LEAKAGE PERMITTED FROM THE FUEL MANIFOLD SHROUD DRAIN LINE.
A. Leakage at the Drain Mast.
NOTE: For identification of this specific drain line on affected engines (Refer to 71-70-00).
WARNING: USE THERMAL GLOVES WHEN YOU MOVE OR TOUCH HOT OR COLD PARTS. HOT OR COLD PARTS CAN CAUSE INJURY.
CAUTION: DO NOT LET THE HMU TEMPERATURE BE MORE THAN 100 DEG. C (212 DEG. F).
   (1) Safety precaution:
NOTE: Hydromechanical Units (HMUs) that have fluorocarbon (Viton) external seals (SB 73-078) can leak fuel for a short time when they are below 0 deg.C (32.00 deg.F) (Modifications 1 and 2) (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-790-002). If the ambient temperature is below -40 deg.C (-40.00 deg.F), it is recommended to heat the HMU (Modifications 1 and 2) to minimize leakage during starts by applying the following procedure.
     (a) Heat the HMU housing with a suitable hot air blower (Keco GH100, Aerotech BT400-45 or equivalent) operating at 140 deg.C (284.00 deg.F) until the HMU housing temperature is more than 25 deg.C (77.00 deg.F).

  • If the fuel leakage stops in less than five minutes at idle, continue operation of the engine.
  • If the fuel leakage continues after five minutes at idle, shut down the engine and repair the source of the leakage.
   (2) Fuel leak at the drain mast assembly:
     (a) With non-running engine (Static fuel leak), do a check at the aircraft drain mast assembly:
       1 If the fuel leakage rate is less than 60 drops per minute (180 ml/hr or 3 cc/min), you do not have maintenance action.
       2 If the fuel leakage rate is more than 60 drops per minute (180 ml/hr or 3 cc/min):
NOTE: In the case of extreme cold weather condition (Outside Air Temperature (OAT)<- 20 deg.C (- 4 deg.F)), fuel leaks from the drain mast (other than fuel manifold drain) may occur on a non running engine and during engine start (cold engine condition). This leakage can stop after a 5-minute warm-up at minimum idle.
     (b) With running engine (Dynamic fuel leak), do a check at the aircraft drain mast assembly (After 5-minute warm-up at minimum idle):
       1 If the fuel leakage rate is less than 60 drops per minute (180 ml/hr or 3 cc/min), you do not have maintenance action.
       2 If the fuel leakage rate is more than 60 drops per minute (180 ml/hr or 3 cc/min), but less than 90 drops per minute (270 ml/hr or 4.5 cc/min), do a corrective action within 25 cycles not interfering with revenue service operation.
       3 If the fuel leakage rate is more than 90 drops per minute (270 ml/hr or 4.5 cc/min), do a leakage test (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-790-003) to identify the defective element.
   (3) Oil leakage at the drain mast assembly:
     (a) If the oil leakage rate at the drain mast assembly is less than 7 drops per minute (20 ml/hr or 1 cc/3 min), you do not have maintenance action.
     (b) If the oil leakage rate at the drain mast assembly is more than 7 drops per minute (20 ml/hr or 1 cc/3 min), do a leakage test (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-790-003).
   (4) Hydraulic leakage at the drain mast assembly (Ref. AMM TASK 29-00-00-790-001).
   (5) Measure the individual leak quantities and look for the items that follow:
NOTE: Whenever serviceable limits for the following are exceeded, refer to the overserviceable limit extension if necessary (Ref. AMM TASK 72-00-00-200-005).

REMARKS
1.The oil source


  • The starter pad
20 ml/hr (1cc/3min) (7 drops/min)
Replace the seal (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-000-005) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-400-005) or (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-000-006) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-400-006).
  • The AGB rear hydraulic pump pad
20 ml/hr (1cc/3min) (7 drops/min)
Replace the seal (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-000-005) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-400-005) or (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-000-006) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-400-006).
  • The AGB fuel pump pad
20 ml/hr (1cc/3min) (7 drops/min)
Replace the seal (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-000-005) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-400-005) or (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-000-006) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-400-006).
  • The lube unit pad
No leaks allowed

  • The main oil/fuel heat exchanger
20 ml/hr (1cc/3min) (7 drops/min)
Replace the main oil/fuel heat exchanger (Ref. AMM TASK 79-21-20-000-001) and (Ref. AMM TASK 79-21-20-400-001).
  • The AGB/IDG pad
20 ml/hr (1cc/3min) (7 drops/min)
Replace the seal (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-000-005) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-400-005) or (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-000-006) and (Ref. AMM TASK 72-63-00-400-006).
  • The forward sump
60 ml/hr (1cc/min) (20 drops/min)
Replace the engine.
  • The aft sump (flooding drain)
Any amount, during the engine motoring (start, cranking) and the after engine shutdown, if the oil consumption rate and oil pressure are within the serviceable limits (Ref. AMM TASK 72-00-00-200-003).
Replace the engine.
NOTE: During the engine motoring, the engine oil supply pressure increases more quickly than the sump air pressure.
When N2 is high enough to get a positive oil pressure, it is normal that a volume of oil goes through the aft sump rotating seals for a short period of time, until the sump air pressure is high enough. This oil is drained through the overboard drain. Some oil will also be drained during the engine shutdown.
  • The aft sump area
No leak allowed
Do a visual inspection of the aft sump area (Ref. AMM TASK 79-00-00-210-007).
NOTE: You must think that oil puddling in the exhaust/aft sump area/centerbody is normal as long as the oil consumption rate is within serviceable limits.
2.The fuel source


  • The fuel manifold shroud
No leaks allowed
Do a leak check at the manifold assembly (Ref. AMM TASK 73-11-40-790-001).

NOTE: The heat exchanger, VSV actuator(s), VBV fuel gear motor, HPTCC valve, BSV, LPTCC valve, RACC valve, HMU and the fuel distribution block share the same fuel drain line at the drain mast manifold. There may be more than one unit leaking. To isolate the unit leaking, disconnect the drain tubes at each component.
