What pressure range is typically associated with fuel injection systems?
10 to 25 psi
What is the primary purpose of a Carburetor Air Temperature (CAT) Indicator?
To detect ice formation in the induction system
What does a high CAT reading just after shutdown indicate?
Potential for fuel expansion and pressure build-up
Where is the CAT sensor typically located in an aircraft’s induction system?
In the ram-air intake duct
What does the yellow arc on the CAT gauge represent?
Danger zone for icing
The CAT Indicator helps in assessing which of the following aspects?
Backfiring and induction system fires
When is it most crucial to note the CAT before starting the engine?
Just after shutdown
Where are fuel pressure gauges typically located in aircraft with multiple engines?
On each engine’s cowling
In the context of the Fuel Pressure Indicator, what does the red line at 2 psi graduation indicate?
Minimum allowable fuel pressure
What is the green arc on the Fuel Pressure Indicator dial used for?
Displaying the desired range of operation
