RB211-TRENT 895-17 Engines.

B. Reason

Fuel leaks from the engine have occurred in service due to damage to sections

of the fan case LP fuel tubes which run between the Low Pressure and the High

Pressure fuel pumps. This damage has been caused by frettage between the

securing clips and the the tube outer surface, which has caused localised

thinning of the tube wall thickness. The thinning of the tube wall causes the

tube to fracture and fuel loss to occur.

There have been several reported in-service events of the clips fretting

through the tube wall and causing a fuel leak, some of these events have led to

a pilot initiated IFSD event.

Revision 1 of this NMSB was issued to add TRENT 884B-17 engine mark to the

Effectivity.

Revision 2 of this NMSB was issued to introduce illustrations of typical early

clip wear that would trigger removal of the clip to inspect the clip and the

condition of the fuel tube at the interface.

Revision 3 of this NMSB was issued to increase the scope of the inspection to

include additional LP fuel tubes and their associated hardware, to revise the

inspection method and to include an in-shop inspection.

Revision 4 of this NMSB was issued to remove the requirement for inspection of

the LP fuel tubes and FOHE mount inspections whenever the LP fuel tube

interface is disconnected, previously identified by 1.D. Compliance (1) (c).

After Revision 3 of this NMSB was issued, the Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM)

was revised to instruct inspection of the FOHE mounting hardware whenever the

FOHE is replaced. Having revised the AMM to include this requirement,

Rolls-Royce considered that the repeat 3000 hour inspection requirement as

identified in 1.D. Compliance (1) (a) and (b) offered sufficient mitigation to

prevent further events. 1.B. Reason was amended to further define the subject

LP fuel tubes and Revision 4 also included references in the Accomplishment

Instructions to the FOHE mounting hardware part numbers included in Material

Information. The Appendix was also revised to include an improved format for

Table 1 and Table 2.

R issued to raise 1.D. Compliance from 'Recommended' Revision 5 of this NMSB was

to 'Alert' and to accomodate an anticipated EASA Airworthiness Directive. The

on-wing reaction time to comply with the NMSB requirements has been changed to

2,000 hours and the requirement to record significant findings has been

removed, along with the on-wing and in-shop data collection tables. In

addition, the Accomplishment Instructions are amended to delete the inspection

of the tube clips, which are replaced regardless of condition, the inspection

of the FOHE mounting system has been enhanced and an incorrect reference to

Part No. FK19213 has been rectified

Revision 6 of this NMSB is issued to amend 3.A. (9) On-Wing Accomplishment

Instructions for the requirement to do a fuel and oil leak test in accordance

with Aircraft Maintenance Manual, Task 71-00-00-800-829-R00. To remove the

ambiguity and avoid operational disruption, a fuel and oil leak check ground

run should be carried out only if any fuel tube has been disturbed.

3. Accomplishment Instructions

A. On-wing - Inspect the tubes (Part No. FK22617, FK19213 and FK23986) and the

relevant clipstacks for frettage.

CAUTION: IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE POTENTIAL FOR MULTIPLE-ENGINE IN-FLIGHT SHUTDOWN,

POWER LOSS OR OTHER ANOMALY DUE TO MAINTENANCE ERROR, ROLLS-ROYCE

RECOMMENDS THAT OPERATORS AVOID PERFORMING MAINTENANCE ON MULTIPLE

ENGINES INSTALLED ON THE SAME AIRCRAFT AT THE SAME TIME. IF IT IS NOT

POSSIBLE TO AVOID MAINTENANCE ON MORE THAT ONE ENGINE AT THE SAME TIME,

ROLLS-ROYCE RECOMMENDS THAT ADDITIONAL CONTROLS ARE APPLIED IN ORDER TO

MAKE SURE THAT MAINTENANCE TASKS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED AS DEFINED.

MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES SHOULD BE REVISED, WHERE POSSIBLE, TO PROMOTE

THIS RECOMMENDATION.

NOTE: Clips should be removed and replaced one at a time to prevent

pre-loading of the clip position.

(1) Refer to Fig.3, Fig.4, Fig.11, Fig.12, Fig.13, Fig.14, Fig.15, Fig.16,

Fig.17 and Fig.18.

(2) Remove the relevant clip retaining the tube from the clipstack.

(3) Inspect all the exposed surface of the fuel tube around the area the clip

was fitted, for signs of damage. Use a mirror in areas where direct line

of sight access is difficult.

Contact frettage to a depth greater

than 0,1 mm (0.004 in.) on the outer

surface of a bend on the tube

Reject and quarantine

Contact frettage 0,2 mm (0.008 in.)

in any other area on the tube

Reject and quarantine

Cracking Reject and quarantine

(4) Inspect the FOHE mounting hardware for signs of damage as follows:

NOTE: Each FOHE mount can be removed, inspected and replaced one at a

time without removing the FOHE assembly completely.

(a) Remove the FOHE mounting hardware in accordance with Aircraft

Maintenance Manual, 79-21-11, Removal.

(b) Examine all spherical joint and associated bracket components of the

FOHE mounting hardware, the part numbers of which are given in 2.

Material Information of this NMSB, for damage/wear.

and bracket (Part No. FK24420) to the fuel tube (Part No.

FK19213). Remove the bracket (Part No. FK24420).

(iii) Remove the bolts (Part No. AS48517) 3 off that attach the fuel

tube (Part No. FK23986) and the brackets (Part No. FK25377 and

FK22219) to the fuel pump. Remove the fuel tube (Part No.

FK23986) and brackets (Part No. FK25377 and FK22219).

(iv) Remove the two seal rings (Part No. AS43013-134 and

AS43013-127) from the fuel tube (Part No. FK23986).

(b) Install the replacement fuel tube (Part No. FK23986) in isolation.

Refer to Fig.3, Fig.11 and Fig.12.

(i) Lubricate and install the seal ring (Part No. AS43013-134) on

the fuel tube (Part No. FK23986) at the fuel pump end of the

tube.

(ii) Lubricate and install the seal ring (Part No. AS43013-127) on

the fuel tube (Part No. FK23986) at the fuel tube (Part No.

FK19213) end of the tube.

of sight access is difficult.

Contact frettage to a depth greater

than 0,1 mm (0.004 in.) on the outer

surface of a bend on the tube

Reject and quarantine

Contact frettage 0,2 mm (0.008 in.)

in any other area on the tube

Reject and quarantine

Cracking Reject and quarantine

(4) Inspect the FOHE mounting hardware for signs of damage as follows:

Spherical bearings seized Reject

(c) Install the components in accordance with Component Maintenance

Manual, Misc Mech, 79-21-11, Assembly, if no damage/wear is found.

NOTE: If this inspection is being carried out during the replacement

of an FOHE, the FOHE's mounts will be exposed therefore it is

recommended that the inspection of the FOHE mounts be carried

out regardless of the LP fuel tube condition.

(5) If the tube is rejected, remove and install each tube with equivalent new

tube and clips in accordance with Engine Manual, 72-00-34, Removal and
