You’ve got Tracy’s EC2 and EM2. You’re flying along and the engine suddenly quits. After you establish glide, think about which way to head for possible landing – What’s the first thing you do? Second thing?

 

Electrical still on

 

Possible failures:

Fuel pump

ECU

One set of injectors out

Fuel supply interrupted (broken/plugged)

MAP sensor line broken (Would engine stop, or just get very rich?)

????

 

I think:  turn on backup pump and switch to controller B.  Check for fuel pressure, if not, set up for landing.  If so, try restart.  No start, turn off one set of injectors.  Still no start; switch to other set. Then ??

 

Anyway, just thinking out loud.  It would be helpful to see emergency checklists regarding engine issues from some of you guys flying.  Tracy, you’re first (well, you can decline). And maybe one of you other guys who has also chosen not to fly through the prop wash (Can’t see whether prop turns or not).

 

Thanks,
