How should corrosion resistant steel parts such as exhaust collectors be blast cleaned? use super fine granite grit use steel grit which has not previously been used on soft iron use sand which has not previously been used on iron or steel.
A punctured float in a float type carburetor will cause the fuel level to: lower, and enrich the mixture rise, and enrich the mixture rise, and lean the mixture.
Where are cooling fins usually located on air cooled engines? cylinder head, cylinder walls, and inside the piston cylinder head, cylinder barrel, and inside the piston exhaust side of the cylinder head, inside the pistons, and connecting rods.
Fuel scheduling during APU start and under varying pneumatic bleed and electrical loads is maintained: manually through power control lever position automatically by an aircraft main engine fuel control unit automatically by the APU fuel control system.
Aircraft cooper electrical wire is coated with tin, silver, or nickel is order to: prevent oxidation improve conductivity add strength.
During engine operation at speeds lower than those for which the constant speed propeller control can govern in the INCREASE RPM position, the propeller will: remain in the full LOW PITCH position maintain engine RPM in the normal manner until the HIGH PITCH stop is reached remain in the full HIGH PITCH position.
How is the oil collected by the piston oil ring returned to the crakcase? through holes drilled in the piston oil ring grooves down vertical slots cut in the piston wall between the piston oil ring groove and the piston skirt through holes drilled in the piston pin recess.
