C. Installation of Compressor Delivery Air Lines (Ref. Fig. 202)

CAUTION: HOLD THE FITTING CORRECTLY IN POSITION WHEN YOU TORQUE THE
COUPLING NUT.

NOTE: It is important to make sure that all solid P3 lines are properly and correctly fitted
before the coupling nuts are tightened. The coupling nuts should be seated without the
use of tools (finger tight) before torquing. The installation of any brackets or clamps
should not distort the line in any way.
(1) Pre-SB13323: Install front tube assembly (9), adapter (12) and gasket (11) on P3 boss on
gas generator case with two bolts (10). Connect coupling nut to P3 filter housing (6). Do not
tighten coupling nut at rear of tube.
(2) Post-SB13323: Install front tube assembly (14) between P3 port on gas generator case and
nipple on P3 air filter housing (6). Install gasket (11) under flange and loosely attach flange
to gas generator case with bolts (10). Do not tighten coupling nut at rear of tube.
NOTE: Do not lockwire components until completion of pressure test (Ref.
Adjustment/Test).
(3) Install rear tube assembly (1) between fitting at P3 input port on FCU and filter housing (6),
passing tube assembly between fuel interconnect hose and fuel pump. Tighten coupling nuts
90 to 100 lbf.in.
(4) Fasten loop clamp (2), spacer (13) and rear tube to bracket (3) with bolt (2) and self-
locking nut (5). Tighten nut 36 to 40 lbf.in.
(5) Leak test fuel control pneumatic system (Ref.
Adjustment/Test).
D. Installation of Air Filter Housing Post-SB13175 Drain Valve (Ref. Fig. 201)
(1) Install spring (9), drain valve (10) into adapter (7) and install retaining ring (11). Make sure
valve moves smoothly and freely, and that retaining ring is installed properly.

CAUTION: COVER (12) MUST NOT BE INSTALLED IN FILTER HOUSING WHEN YOU
TIGHTEN THE ADAPTER.

CAUTION: THE P3 FILTER COVER IS MADE FROM ALUMINUM ALLOY. TAKE CARE
NOT TO DAMAGE THE COVER ASSEMBLY WHEN LOCKWIRING THE
DRAIN VALVE ASSEMBLY TO THE COVER ASSEMBLY. BEFORE
LOCKWIRING, EXAMINE THE LOCKWIRE ATTACHMENT HOLES ON THE
COVER ASSEMBLY FOR EVIDENCE OF TEARING. IF TEARING IS
EVIDENT, SECURE LOCKWIRE TO AN ALTERNATE SERVICEABLE
LOCATION (REF. 70-00-00, STANDARD PRACTICES - MAINTENANCE
PRACTICES).
(2) Install preformed packing (8) on adapter (7), and install valve assembly in cover. Torque
adapter (7) 225 to 250 lb. in. and lockwire to cover.
(3) Install preformed packing (13) on filter cover (12). Lubricate threads of cover with oil
(PWC03-001) and install in filter housing. Torque cover 60 to 70 lb. in.
(4) Leak test fuel control pneumatic system (Ref.
Adjustment/Test).
(5) Lockwire air filter cover (12) when no leaks have been detected or

7. Cleaning/Painting
A. Cleaning of P3 Air Filter (Ref. Fig. 203)

(2) Pour sufficient quantity of solvent (PWC11-002) or (PWC11-014) into tank to a level
approximately 1/4 inch below top.
(3) Operate cleaner for 10
minutes.
(4) Turn element 180 degrees (open end of element at
top).
(5) Operate cleaner for five
minutes.
(6) Turn element to original position in tank (Ref. Step (1)
).
(7) Operate cleaner for five minutes.
NOTE: Cleaning duration should be adjusted to suit condition of filter element. However, for
optimum results, cleaning solvent should be replaced every 20 minutes.
(8) Wear clean, lint-free gloves and remove element from
tank.
(9) Dry element with clean, dry compressed air (30
psi).
(10)Inspect filter element (Ref. Inspection/Check).
(11)Vibropeen cleaning date on end cap.
(12)Store cleaned filter elements in clean polyethylene bags until required for installation.
B. Cleaning of Air Tubes

CAUTION: DURING CLEANING, MAKE SURE SOLVENT DOES NOT CONTACT

RUBBER INSULATED SECTIONS OF AIR TUBE ASSEMBLIES.
(1) Pressure flush tubes with solvent (PWC11-027) or (PWC11-
031).
(2) Dry interior and exterior of tubes using clean, dry compressed
air.
(3) Cap open ends to prevent ingress of dirt, oil or other contaminants until tubes are required
for installation.
C. Cleaning of Air Filter Housing Post-SB13175 Drain Valve Adapter (Ref. Fig. 201)
(1) Clean adapter (7), spring (9), and valve (10) with solvent (PWC11-027) or (PWC011-31)
and non-metallic bristle brush.
8. Inspection/Check
A. Inspection of Air Tubes
(1) Examine air tubes (Ref. 70-00-00, INSPECTION, Inspection of Fuel, Oil and Air
Tubes).
(2) Examine insulation for cuts in outer rubber sheath. Surface cuts up to three inches long may
be repaired (Ref. Approved Repairs).
B. Inspection of Air Filter Element
(1) Inspect air filter element at intervals recommended in Chapter 72-00-00, INSPECTION,
Periodic Inspection. Filter must be free of visible heavy contamination, and should not
provide undue restriction when blown through. If repeated electrosonic cleaning (Ref.
Cleaning/Painting) fails to restore filter to an acceptable condition, filter element should be
shipped to an approved overhaul facility for ultrasonic cleaning and flow checking.
(2) Use a 10x magnifying glass to inspect the filter element for detachment of end cap or
broken wires. Reject element if any of these conditions are evident.
