3.  Before any engine is shipped to the user, the
manufacturer or overhaul facility has test-run the engine
in a test cell to ensure quality control.
 Ground operation, or testing of an engine may also be
performed in the mobile engine test unit (METU).

4.  Test-cell instrumentation usually includes temperature
and pressure gages to monitor engine performance.
 To compare the performance of similar engines on
different days, under different atmospheric conditions, a
given engine's performance must be corrected to the
standard day condition of 29.92 inches of mercury and 59
F.

5.  During testing, any problem that would limit the engine's
performance, such as exhaust gas temperature, torque,
fuel flow, or maximum speed, is corrected.

6. Exhaust danger area

7.  Ground Testing is intended to give an engine
a thorough test for mechanical soundness
and for correct indications of operating
parameters.
 Toavoid repeating the instructions, the
following checks are based on reversing
engines which utilize the fuel cut-off lever as
means of controlling starting and shutdown.

8.  On non-reversing engines this is
accomplished by the initial movement of the
power control ever to the IDLE detent.
 In cases of conflict between the instructions
in this manual and those in the applicable
aircraft manual, the latter will apply.
 To eliminate unnecessary ground running,
ground testing is divided into ground test
procedures o checks, as follows:

9. NOTE: Although Procedures for ground
testing are described herein, the
appropriate air frame manufacturer’s
manual must be consulted for detailed
procedures, curve so tables required to
carry out the tests.

12. There are three categories of storage, that is:
 Flyable storage.
 Temporary storage.
 Extended storage.
* The decision as to which category of storage is to be
used depends upon the length of time the engine will
be inactive.

13.  An engine that will not be operated for a period of
at least 72 hours, or more than 14 days, must be
preserved and maintained with all components
and systems in an operable condition.
 On the third day, the engine must be run-up or
motored with the starter.

14.  An engine that will not be operated for over 14 days,
but less than 45 days, must be placed in temporary
storage.
 Engines normally falling in this category are those
undergoing minor repair or modification which
requires idleness for a period not to exceed 45 days.

15.  An engine that will be inactive for more than 45
days, but not exceeding 180 days, must be
preserved and maintained in extended storage.
 Usually, this includes those engines undergoing
major repair or modification, or any other
circumstance that would warrant idleness for 45 to
180 days.

16.  All preservation procedures require that any
accumulation of dirt be removed from the engine with dry
cleaning solvent.
 Under usual conditions, it will not be necessary to clean
the entire external surface of the engine.
 If necessary, perspiration residues can be removed from
close tolerance bare metal surfaces by wiping with a
clean cloth dampened in fingerprint remover before
cleaning with solvent.

17.  To prevent oil contamination, never mix synthetic-
base oils with mineral-base oils.
 Synthetic-base lubricating oil is required for the
engine. Only a synthetic-base corrosion
preventive oil can be used to spray the
compressor for corrosion prevention.
