TROUBLES AND ACTIONS
ACTIONS WHEN RUNNING OUT OF FUEL
When starting the engine again after running out of fuel, fill it up with fuel and bleed air from the fuel system
before starting.
Always check the fuel level to prevent running out of fuel.
If the engine has stopped because of running out of fuel, all the air in the fuel circuit must be bled by using the
fuel feed pump.
