A. Fuel or Hydraulic or Oil Leakage Limits
(a) Static fuel leak check: 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/h or 3 cc/min), no maintenance action is necessary.
2 If the fuel leakage rate is more than 60 drops per minute (180 ml/h or 3 cc/min), do the dynamic fuel leak check.:
(b) Dynamic fuel leak check:
1 Start the Engine (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-860-827).
2 Let the engine become stable at minimum idle for five minutes.
3 a If the fuel leakage rate is less than 60 drops per minute (180 ml/h or 3 c c/min), no maintenance action is necessary.
b If the fuel leakage rate is more than 60 drops per minute (180 ml/h or 3 cc/min), but less than 90 drops per minute (270 ml/h or 4.5 cc/min), do a corrective action within 25 cycles not interfering with revenue service operation.
c If the fuel leakage rate is more than 90 drops per minute (270 ml/h or 4. 5 cc/min), do a leakage test (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-790-806) to identify the defective element.
4 Stop the engine (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-860-829)
(2) Measure oil leakage at the drain mast assembly:
(a) If the oil leakage rate at the drain mast assembly is less than seven drops per minute (20 ml/h or 1 cc/3 min), no maintenance action is necessary.
(b) If the oil leakage rate at the drain mast assembly is more than seven drops per minute (20 ml/h or 1 cc/3 min), do the following steps:
1 Start the engines (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-860-827)
2 Let the engine become stable at minimum idle for five minutes.
3 Slowly increase the power of the non-tested engine to 60 percent N1.
4 Slowly accelerate the tested engine and stabilize at 70 percent N1 for five minutes.
5 Slowly decrease the power of the two engines to minimum idle and let th em become stable for five minutes.
6 Stop the engines (Ref. AMM TASK 71-00-00-860-829)
7 Measure the individual leakage quantities collected from each plastic container.
(3) Measure hydraulic leakage at the drain mast assembly: (Ref. AMM TASK 29-00-00-790-001)
