# 747 Service Bulletin **ALERT Summary**  **Number: 747-28A2330** Original Issue: April 02, 2012 ATA System: 2822 **SUBJECT:** FUEL - Engine Fuel Feed System - Engine Fuel Suction Feed Operational Test THIS BULLETIN IS SENT TO THE OPERATORS OF RECORD OF THE AIRPLANES SHOWN IN PARAGRAPH 1.A., EFFECTIVITY. IF AN AIRPLANE HAS BEEN LEASED OR SOLD, SEND THIS SERVICE BULLETIN TO THE NEW OPERATOR. IF APPLICABLE SPARES HAVE BEEN SOLD, SEND THIS SERVICE BULLETIN TO THE NEW OWNER. **CONCURRENT REQUIREMENTS** None. **BACKGROUND** This service bulletin provides instructions to operators to perform an Engine Fuel Suction Feed Operational Test on each engine individually. This test is required in order to protect against engine flameout during suction feed operations. The instructions given in this service bulletin are provided to detect and correct failure of the engines fuel suction feed of the fuel system, which could result in dual engine flameout and inability to restart the engines, and consequent forced landing of the airplane. Accomplishing the fuel system suction feed test and continuing to repeat the testing within the specified compliance times will reduce the possibility of an engine flameout resulting from air ingestion into the engine fuel feed system during low fuel level conditions with inoperative boost pumps . An operator reported a 737-400 Engine No. 1 flameout during cruise. The Engine No. 2 continued to operate normally. The flight crew conducted two restart attempts within the start envelope with no success then diverted uneventfully. Another operator reported a 737-300 Engine No. 2 shut down when the start lever was placed in the idle position during taxi to the gate. The Engine number 1 continued to operate normally. Maintenance performed a vacuum test of the engine fuel feed system and found a crack in a fuel feed tube. The fuel feed tube was replaced and the vacuum test of the fuel feed system was performed and passed successfully. This table is provided to operators for planning purposes only. Refer to the applicable sections for more information.

BLANK PAGE**3. ACCOMPLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS A. GENERAL INFORMATION**  **CAUTION:** KEEP THE WORK AREA, WIRES AND ELECTRICAL BUNDLES CLEAN OF METAL PARTICLES OR CONTAMINATION WHEN YOU USE TOOLS. UNWANTED MATERIAL, METAL PARTICLES OR CONTAMINATION CAUGHT IN WIRE BUNDLES CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE BUNDLES. DAMAGED WIRE BUNDLES CAN CAUSE SPARKS OR OTHER ELECTRICAL DAMAGE. **NOTE:** 1. Manual titles are referred to by acronyms. Refer to Paragraph 1.J., References, for definition of the acronyms. 2. Obey all of the warnings and cautions given in the specified manual sections. 3. The work instructions are divided into work packages. Task Hours and Elapsed Hours for each package are given in Paragraph 1.G., Manpower. You can do each work package independently. 4. These work instructions refer to procedures included in other Boeing documents. When the words "refer to" are used and the operator has an accepted alternative procedure, the accepted alternative procedure can be used. When the words "in accordance with" are included in the instruction, the procedure in the Boeing document must be used. 5. The instructions in Paragraph 3.B., Work Instructions and the figures can include operation of tools or test equipment. Boeing Engineering Tool Drawings, the Illustrated Tool and Equipment Manual, and the Special Tool and Ground Handling Drawing Index contain data on versions of the tools or test equipment that you can use. It is permitted to use replaced tools. It is not permitted to use superseded tools. 6. If it is necessary to remove more parts for access, you can remove those parts. If you can get access without removing identified parts, it is not necessary to remove all of the identified parts. Jacking and shoring limitations must be observed. 7. Where the work instructions include installation of a kept part, a new or serviceable part with the same part number can be installed as an alternative to the kept part. **B. WORK INSTRUCTIONS** Prepare for tests. 1. Do the "Engine Ground Safety Precautions". Refer to 747-400 AMM 71-00-00 2. Do the "Prepare for the Power Plant Operation". Refer to 747-400 AMM 71-00-00 3.
