Insufficient Fuel Flow to Engine startup

Featured Replies

Hi,

I notice that when I  start engine (N2 > 20% and after N1 > 20%) the FF start and go 0,60 after decrease to 0,29 and stop.

 

The egine don´t have power to taxi. (No ground conections)

 

What am I do wrong or mistake?

 

Regards

Have you turned off the L & R packs on the overhead (and don't forget to turn them back on when engines started)

When you say the engines have no power to taxi, are you expecting the plane to start moving under idle thrust? Or that the engines don't respond to throttle inputs?

 

Those FF figures look right during start (they are high to start with then settle down as the engines reach idle).

No, I don´t expecting to star move under idle thrust. When a apply thrust, a warning sound star and the aircraft don´t taxi.

 

I watching a youtube tutorial and  the FF reaches 1.56 and then decrease.

 

Thanks

Hi Folks!

 

Some reason I solve the problem. The problem is FSUIPC. I remove and the Fuel Flow is ok, 

Just don´t me ask why?

If anyone knows the reason I´m curious

 

Thanks
