6. When an engine is shutdown after testing, what is checked on rundown?
8. Why is it important to let the engine run at idle for the specified length of time
before shutdown?
9. Are all type engines rigged the same way after testing? Why or why not?
11. When the starter is engaged during the starting sequence, what are the first two
instrument indications that should be checked?
12. Name one fail safe way of ensuring your safety and the safety of the company’s
assets before the initial test run of an engine in any test cell.
13. Engine instruments in the cockpit are classified as either performance
instruments or _________________ instruments.
16. Due to the lack of cooling air during starting, it is a critical time during which the
_________________ gauge must be closely monitored.
17. Regardless of the position of the thermocouple probe in the engine, its signal to
the cockpit ensures that safe ______________ _____________ temperature is
being maintained.
18. Because each EGT circuit must maintain a specific value, wire length cannot be
increased because it will induce:

system, these signals are from the:
a) _________________ system
b) _________________ system
26. What is used in a test cell to provide resistance to the engine? (As the propeller
would do on wing)
27. Data on the engine performance that is received in the test cell is compared to
______________________________ before it gets returned to the customer.
