1. Planning Information

A. Effectivity
(1) This is a CATEGORY 2, RELIABILITY service bulletin.
NOTE: CATEGORY 2 service bulletins address substantial improvements to
reliability, usually by reducing the probability of experiencing an in-flight
shutdown or substantial repair costs associated with unscheduled
maintenance events. The compliance schedule stated in this service
bulletin provides a reasonable reduction in risk while minimizing engine
downtime.
(2) This service bulletin is applicable to the FCA shown in Table 2.
Table 2. Applicable Component(s)
PN Prior to Serial Number
3070800-28, -30, -37, -39, -47 and -49 20681

(3) The component(s) shown in Table 2 are used on turbofan aircraft engines. This service
bulletin is applicable to the serial numbers shown in Table 3.

NOTE:

B. Concurrent Requirements
(1) Not applicable.
C. Reason
(1) Problem:
(a) Some FCAs, PN 3070800, have experienced screw head separation of the
MM solenoid attachment screws. This condition can result in mechanical

 SERVICE BULLETIN
TFE731

interference with the PLA shaft, and a loss of engine thrust control. It can also
inhibit the ability to actuate the integral FCA mechanical fuel shutoff valve, and
can result in external fuel leakage from the FCA PLA shaft cavity. Additionally,
if manual mode operation is activated in combination with a manual mode
solenoid screw head separation, the potential exists for an uncommanded
engine acceleration. The engine will accelerate until the mechanical speed
governor in the FCA limits the engine N2 to approximately 104 percent speed.
(b) The root cause was determined to be an over-torque of the OS and MM
solenoid attachment screws during the FCA manufacture. However, any FCA
that was previously returned to the Honeywell Prince Edward Island R&O
facility for repair or maintenance has had the MM and OS solenoid attachment
screws replaced with new pre Service Bulletin TFE731-73-5146 part number
screws, and torqued to the correct values.
(2) Background:
(a) Honeywell has developed improved FCAs, PN 3070800-28, -30, -37, and
-47, identified with PL ISS 7, and FCAs, PN 3070800-69 and -79, that have
been manufactured with the solenoid attachment screws torqued to the
correct value. The improved FCAs also have improved MM and OS solenoid
attachment screws installed. The new screws have a slightly larger cross
sectional area near the screw head and shank area, and will improve the
durability of the solenoid attachment screws.
(3) Action:
(a) Install improved FCA, PN 3070800-28, -30, -37, and -47, identified with
PL ISS 7, or FCA, PN 3070800-69 or -79 (as applicable), that have been
manufactured with improved MM and OS solenoid attachment screws torqued
to the correct value, when the installed FCA is replaced for any cause (when
FCA is no longer serviceable) or modify the existing FCA at the next MPI or
CZI, whichever occurs first.
D. Description
(1) This service bulletin provides instructions to install improved FCA, PN 3070800-28,
-30, -37, or -47, identified with PL ISS 7, or FCA, PN 3070800-69 or -79 (as applicable).
E. Compliance
(1) Compliance addresses a substantial improvement to reliability.
(2) Honeywell recommends that this service bulletin be accomplished as follows:
(a) FCAs with a PL ISS number prior to PL ISS 7 that have a yellow Service
Information Plate installed, as shown in Figure 2, and FCAs Serial Numbers
20587 thru 20680 without a yellow Service Information Plate, have MM and OS
solenoid attachment screws torqued to the correct value. These FCAs meet
Type Design, are considered serviceable and can continue to be installed and
used on any applicable engine until the FCA is replaced for any cause (when
FCA is no longer serviceable). These FCAs will have the improved screws
installed at next replacement for cause. Do not sign-off compliance with

 SERVICE BULLETIN
TFE731

Service Bulletin TFE731-73-5146 in the engine logbook until an FCA which

meets the requirements shown in Table 7 has been installed on the engine.
(b) FCAs with a PL ISS number prior to PL ISS 7 that DO NOT have a yellow
Service Information Plate installed, as shown in Figure 2, and are NOT FCA
Serial Numbers 20587 thru 20680 without a yellow Service Information Plate,
Honeywell recommends this service bulletin be accomplished when the FCA
is replaced for any cause (when FCA is no longer serviceable) or at the next
MPI or CZI, whichever occurs first.
(3) Optionally, a serviceable FCA (not being replaced for cause) may be modified to install
the improved MM and OS solenoid attachment screws at the option of the customer.
No warranty or MSP coverage will be provided to optionally modify a serviceable
FCA that is not being replaced for cause. Customers wanting to perform a proactive
modification to a serviceable FCA should download and accomplish Honeywell Service
Bulletin CHR1-73-0001. Refer to the Honeywell Portal for service bulletin download.
(a) Honeywell MSP operators with FCAs that do NOT have a yellow Service
Information Plate installed will receive this modification to the existing FCA at
the next scheduled MPI or CZI. MSP will only cover the rework of the FCA.
Exchanges of the FCA through SPEX will NOT be covered.
(b) Honeywell MSP operators with FCA Serial Numbers 20587 thru 20680
that do NOT have a yellow Service Information Plate will NOT receive this
modification at the next scheduled MPI or CZI. These FCAs meet Type
Design, are considered serviceable and can continue to be installed and used
on any applicable engine until the FCA is replaced for any cause (when the
FCA is no longer serviceable).
F. Approval
(1) The change to the engine type design authorized by this service bulletin complies with
applicable Federal Aviation Regulations and is FAA approved.
G. Manpower
(1) No additional man-hour(s) are required to accomplish this change when replacement
of an unserviceable FCA is required.
(2) An estimated 6.0 man-hour(s) will be required to optionally install the improved MM
and OS solenoid attachment screws in to a serviceable FCA (not being replaced for
cause) or at the next scheduled MPI or CZI.
H. Weight and Balance
(1) None.
I. Electrical Load Data
(1) Not applicable.
J. Software Accomplishment Summary
(1) Not applicable.

the presence of a yellow Service Information Plate, or for FCAs serial number is 20587
thru 20680 without a yellow service tag.
