Strange thing today....

[WARDHOG]

I was merginging into high speed traffic today and was hitting the throttle pretty hard all the way up to fourth and when I went into fourth, my RPMs would not go past 3500 even flooring the pedal. I backed off the throttle and slipped it into neutral and revved it up if few times with no problem and slipped it back into fourth and had the samething happen. I then down shifted to third and so on and it seemed normal even after blipping the throttle in between each gear. What do think that was or is. Haven't had a chance to try and duplicate it again and I'm kind of leary on doing it again. Could this been an Egas problem, clutch or transmission that caused what happened? Would like some thoughts.

TIA! :huh:

Sounds like E-gas problem to me. Maby try to disconnect the battary for 2 min to reset all systems. Works on a Airbus plane :D

Next time I suggest you only disconnect external power and switch off the apu in order to avoid delays and keep the passengers happy. :clapping:

:jump: But it only works if there is no power source at all.

It's hitting some sort of electronic cut off. Most likely, it's an electronic malfunction of the ECU. If it happens again, have it swapped or reflashed.

I was only referring to "disconnecting" the batteries instead of just switching them off... Could literally see you crawling through the A&E compartment in search for them :P

Haha...that would look nice. Even the 767 A&E compartment is very big.

Well WARDHOG did you solve the problem ?
