INSTRUMENT INDICATIONS OUTSIDE OF GREEN RANGE
(a) High Oil Pressure When Starting in Low Ambient Temperatures
-
Reduce RPM and re-check oil pressure at a higher oil temperature.
-
If on reducing the RPM the indicated oil pressure does not change, it is probable that
the fault lies in the oil pressure indication. Terminate flight preparation.
(b) High Manifold Pressure
If the manifold pressure indicator is clearly above the green range, the reading is faulty.
In this case the performance settings should be undertaken by means of the lever settings.
The airplane should be serviced.
(c) Oil Temperature
A constant reading of the oil temperature of 26 °F (-3 °C) or 317 °F (158 °C) suggests
%
a faulty oil temperature sensor. The airplane should be serviced.
(d) Cylinder Head Temperature and Exhaust Gas Temperature
A very low reading of CHT or EGT for a single cylinder may be the result of a loose sensor.
In this case the reading will indicate the temperature of the engine compartment. The
airplane should be serviced.
