You’ve got = Tracy’s EC2 and EM2.=20 You’re flying along and the engine suddenly quits. After you = establish glide,=20 think about which way to head for possible landing – = What’s the first thing=20 you do? Second thing?

 

Electrical still=20 on

 

Possible=20 failures:

Fuel = pump

ECU

One set of injectors=20 out

Fuel supply = interrupted=20 (broken/plugged)

MAP sensor line broken = (Would=20 engine stop, or just get very rich?)
