Hi Larry,
Sorry, but I had to finish my revision to the Repair Station manual for the EASA change-
I started it last Month, and I always set a future date on documents as a reminder-
This was due by the 9th, I wrote the manual changes for 12/1.
Finished, and sent to the FAA today.
Some of the videos sent show a pressure change, with no voltage change-
That points to the Torque motor on that side.
EFTA00839702
Others show the voltage changing, that points to the controller.
There is a delay in the pressure readings, so that may explain part of it.
Jeffrey sent that the right voltage at the panel was jumping all over the place.
The controllers are not easy to swap, maybe swap the Torque motors for the trip to KTEB.
Narrow it down.
The question of the Check Valve that he sent, could be an issue-
It wouldn't explain the voltage and pressure changes to the precoolers, but has merit.
The check valve being stuck open would probably show as engine issues.
High TGT and Fuel flow at some points. Air from the high pressure system back feeding
into the lower pressure system within the engine on that side. Probably show as an engine vibe.
The pressures from the 7 and/or 12 stage valves are indicated on the overhead panel.
The bleed air pressure, from either valve is shown as what is in the manifold for that side.
I will send you the functional check for the valves.
It requires high power runs, with readings for when the 12th stage air comes into play.
Hard to accomplish at KTEB with high power runs-
As a reminder, the Compass swings are due in December-
The overboard vent, that he asked about, is the bottom of the pylon panel.
The schematic sent shows a valve there, but doesn't apply to the G-IV.
The comment for the Ground Spoilers may tie into the issue that we saw with the Auto-Throttles re-
engaging.
The one for that the issue was worse at 15K, steady state condition-
Was it worse then what he had prior to the work that we have done?
EFTA00839703
or the worst that has occurred since the R/R of the precooler line and Sensor change?
We did the flight at 15K, steady state at both 250 and 300 KT's and you did notice a slight vibe.
What is the sched, and can you swap units prior to TEB trip?
I have updated CMP for the DME and RT side sensor changes.
I will have both the Controller, and Torque motors available for replacement.
If the problem follows the Torque motor on the trip to KTEB, fine, it will be replaced.
If the system problems still remains, or doesn't follow-
We could do a flight check, Thursday would be the best for smooth air.
I will bring the tools required, and the parts along.
We could make a landing wherever, and I could change out the parts there.
do a flight back and confirm that it
Let me know the Sched-
Regards,
Pete

when we were flying to carlsbad we were steady at 15000 ft. the vibration seemed worse. so i opened
to panel to see the needle on the right jumping like in the first video. I also dont think the ground
spoilers are deplying properly, I ddint notice the usual drop in lift. . could it be one of the bleed air
valves 7th or 12 th stage. getting stuck. can we run the engines and take temps at the pylon
precoolers.

Update from Pete,.
I'll swap controllers in SIT,
Continue troubleshooting in Teterboro,.
With your permission, I'd like to accomplish one more short fight with Pete, he ordered more parts we
can try to repair fluctuation in voltage and PSI
Thx

Subject: Re: Video
Hi Larry,
The photos are inconclusive.
There is no knowing what signal has been sent to the Torque motor. My original video shows
fluctuations in the controller voltage, and the Torque motor responding with a delayed reading.
First photo shows right precooler signaled closed, left sent signal to be partially open, lower voltage
equals more open.
Second shows equal voltage signals to the Torque Motors.
Third shows a lower pressure to the right side valve resulting in more open.
Last shows a lower voltage, and allowing the precooler on the right side to be more open.
I just recalled that the precoolers are regulating to 400 degrees, that didn't make sense since the
engine temps are below that at lower settings.
The bleed air system is in Fahrenheit, engine temps are in centigrade!
The video that you sent shows that the voltage to the Torque Motors shows a steady voltage signal
from the controller, but with a fluctuation from the Torque Motor pressure readings. My original
video shows the voltage high, requiring a higher pressure, but PSI low.
Any chance that you can have the Torque Motors swapped before the TEB trip? They are located
forward of the angle plate that has the controllers behind the plate. Shouldn't be to bad. Accessible
with 2 air lines, cannon plugs, and 4 screws.
I plan to swap the controllers if you can have the Torque Motors swapped, and the issue remains.
A wiring issue is always there-
Questions-
What is the ETA? Wednesday at what time?
Are you available with crew to do a test flight?
Is a flight check approved by you if needed? KALB - Albany NY from KTEB would be my
recommendation. I will bring tools, and can take along the suspect parts from CJS. We could land at
ALB, and change the units there.
BTW- I have been watching the video of our landing at KTEB from our last trip. The auto throttles
were confirmed as being disengaged, both verbally, and disconnect tones at about 400 Ft. After
landing the tones sound again.
Watch and see how far down the runway we are. I was watching the camera, and focused on the
EFTA00839706
outside view. I did look down at the throttles and saw that they were not fully pulled back.
My review shows that the engine Idle lights, and the No Gnd Spoiler lights flicker on roll out. I don't
think that the Ground spoilers deployed. There is no indication of the T/R s either.
I see this as an issue with the entire G-IV fleet, Meridian and others.
I don't want to pass my video from this to others without your permission.

Pete
