5. Internal Washing
A. General
Depending on the operating environment and the types of deposits in the engine gas
path, the following washes can be used to remove salt or dirt and other baked-on deposits
that accumulate over a period of time and cause engine performance deterioration.
Compressor wash is done by injecting applicable cleaning fluid into the engine intake using
either an installed compressor wash ring or a hand held wash wand.
Compressor turbine wash is done by injecting applicable cleaning fluid through a wash
tube installed into the gas generator igniter boss.
B. Motoring Wash
A motoring wash is done at 10 to 25% Ng and the water or the cleaning mixture,
depending on ambient temperature (Ref. Table 702), is injected into the engine intake at
a rate of 2 to 3 gal/minute (7.6 to 11.3 l/minute).
Washing during a motoring cycle makes sure emulsion fluid remains in liquid form.
C. Types of Wash
Compressor desalination wash is essentially used to remove salt deposits, however light
dirt deposits may also be removed. Wash fluid is drinking quality water, provided
minimum standards are met (Ref. Para. F.).
Compressor turbine desalination wash is used to remove salt deposits from the blades.
The wash fluid is the same as for a compressor wash. It is strongly recommended
this procedure be done when operating in salt laden atmosphere.
When desalination washes are done in conjunction with each other it is essential
compressor wash is done first.
D. Wash Schedule
Depending on the operating environment, the nature and frequency of compressor wash
is recommended in accordance with Table 701.
E. Preparation of Solutions
Five liters (1.33 US gal.) of cleaning solution, and ten liters (2.66 US gal.) of rinse
solution is required. The solution formulation is dependent upon prevailing ambient
temperature and must be prepared in accordance with Table 702, for cleaning and Table
703 for rinse .
F. Equipment Required
(1) Wash cart (PWC32677-100), or optional locally manufactured wash rig comprising
the following (Ref. Fig. 701) :
(b) Mechanical agitator, or recirculation pump with relief valve, for mixture
agitation.
(c) Two flow control valves for use with recirculation pump.
(a) Wash wand (Ref. Fig. 702). Flow rate 2 to 3 gal/minute (7.6 to 11.3 l/minute).
(b) Modified wash ring (Ref. Fig. 703). Flow rate 2 to 3 gal/minute (7.6 to 11.3
l/minute).

NOTE: Drinking water quality varies according to location and season; these
specifications are provided as a guide only.
(9) Suitable tubing to interconnect components, valve and tubing connections are to be
5/16 inch (8 mm) ID minimum.
(10) Two flow control valves, for use with recirculation pump (Ref. Fig. 701).
A. Desalination Wash
(1) Depending on ambient temperature, fill wash tanks with appropriate solution (Ref.
Table 703).Alternatively, connect suitable hose to drinking water for ambient
temperature above 2 C (36 F).
(2) Connect compressed air regulated to 30 to 50 psig (207 to 345 kPa) to wash tanks.
(3) If compressor wash rig is not available, a centrifugal pump may be used to boost
drinking water pressure above 30 psig (207 kPa) .
(4) Remove or open engine cowlings, as applicable, to expose engine inlet screen
(Ref. Aircraft Maintenance Manual), and install wash wand or ring .
(5) Connect wash wand or ring to pressurized tanks or to drinking water supply as
applicable.
NOTE: To prevent the precipitation of deposits due to the use of hard water,
allow engine to cool below 65 C (150 F). Minimum duration for cooling is
40 minutes since last operation.
NOTE: For Post-SB3350 Engines: Removal of the forward P3 air tube is not
required as the drain valve installed in the P3 filter cover will drain
remaining fluids.
(8) For Post-SB3270 Engines fitted with an exhaust duct drain: Place container under
exhaust duct drain port to collect fluid and remove drain cap assembly (1, Ref.
Fig. 704).
(10) When Ng reaches 5% minimum, inject wash mixture or water into engine, as
applicable.
(14) Remove wash wand or ring from inlet screen. Reinstall or close engine cowlings
(Ref. Aircraft Maintenance Manual).
NOTE: It is important to make sure all solid P3 lines are properly and correctly
fitted before the coupling nuts are tightened. The coupling nuts should be
seated wihtout the use of tools (fingertight) before torquing. The
installation of any pipe brackets should not distort the pipe in any way.
(16) Check that wash fluid came out of the exhaust duct drain. Remove any obstruction
from the drain fitting.
(17) For Post-SB3012 engines fitted with P3 filter: Check for zero air leakage during
engine drying cycle. If satisfactory, lockwire coupling nut at nipple fitting.
(a) Apply a thin coat of anti-seize compound (PWC06-036) to nipple threads (2).
(b) Install new gasket (3) on drain nipple (2) and install in bottom of exhaust duct.
Torque nipple 65 to 75 lb.in.
(19) Start engine (Ref. ADJUSTMENT/TEST, Engine Starting). Run engine at 80% Ng
for one minute or more to completely dry engine, and check for air leaks. Check
engine acceleration.
(1) Depending on ambient temperature, fill wash tanks with appropriate cleaning
solution (Ref. Table 702) and rinse solution (Ref. Table 703) in separate tanks.
(2) Connect compressed air supply, 30 to 50 psig (207 to 345 kPa) to wash tanks.
(3) Remove or open engine cowlings, as applicable, to expose engine inlet screen and
install wash wand or ring.

Removal/Installation of Exhaust Duct Drain
Figure 704
(6) For Post-SB3270 Engines fitted with an exhaust duct drain: Place container
under exhaust duct drain port to collect fluid and remove drain cap assembly (1, Ref.
Fig. 704).
NOTE: For Post-SB3350 Engines: Removal of the forward P3 air tube is not
required as the drain valve installed in the P3 filter cover will drain
remaining fluids.
(13) Motor engine. When Ng reaches 5%, inject rinse solution into engine (half quantity
only).
NOTE: It is important to make sure all solid P3 lines are properly and correctly
fitted before the coupling nuts are tightened. The coupling nuts should be
seated wihtout the use of tools (fingertight) before torquing. The
installation of any pipe brackets should not distort the pipe in any way.
(18) Check that wash fluid came out of the exhaust duct drain. Remove any obstruction
from the drain fitting.
(a) Apply a thin coat of anti-seize compound (PWC06-036) to nipple threads (2).
(b) Install new gasket (3) on drain nipple (2) and install in bottom of exhaust duct.
Torque nipple 65 to 75 lb.in.
(20) For Post-SB3012 Engines: Check for zero air leakage during drying cycle. If
satisfactory, lockwire coupling nut at nipple fitting.
(21) Start engine (Ref. ADJUSTMENT/TEST, Engine Starting), and run at 80% Ng for
one minute or more to completely dry engine, and check for zero air leaks during
drying cycle. Check engine acceleration.
(2) Connect compressed air or nitrogen supply, regulated to 30 to 50 psig (207 to 345
kPa) to wash tanks. If compressor wash rig is not available, a centrifugal pump may
be used to boost drinking water pressure above 30 psig (207 kPa) .
(4) Install spray tube (3) . Make sure that RGB inscribed on tang is pointing towards
the reduction gearbox. Tighten fingertight.
NOTE: Engine temperature must be below 65C (150F). Inadvertent use of hard
water will result in the precipitation of deposits. The minimum cooling off
period is 40 minutes since last engine operation.
(7) For Post-SB3270 Engines fitted with an exhaust duct drain: Place container under
exhaust duct drain port to collect fluid and remove drain cap assembly (1, Ref.
Fig. 704).
(10) When Ng reaches 5%, inject water or isopropyl alcohol as applicable, into engine.
(13) If water/alcohol solution is used, observe starter cooling period and then motor
engine for 30 seconds.
(14) Disconnect pressurized tanks or drinking water supply from wash tube and remove
tube.
(15) Install igniter (1) and new gasket (2) (Ref. 74-20-00).
(16) Install or close engine cowlings as applicable (Ref. Aircraft Maintenance Manual).
(17) Check that wash fluid came out of the exhaust duct drain. Remove any obstruction
from the drain fitting.
(a) Apply a thin coat of anti-seize compound (PWC06-036) to nipple threads (2).

A. General
External cleaning is found to be very effective in tracing the origin of possible external oil
leakage.
A. General
Cleaning should be initiated on new or recently cleaned nozzles as the procedure will
not clear previous blockages. Clean every 200 hours. Adjust interval based on condition
and experience.
Wash cart (PWC32677-100) is required. Prior to the wash cycle, the cleaning rig must
be prepared and operated in accordance with the Cleaning Rig Manual.
