A toggle switch on the upper console, marked FUEL PUMP, FUEL PRIME, OFF and APU BOOST (Figure 2-6), when moved to FUEL PRIME, energizes the prime/ boost pump and solenoid valves to each main engine fuel supply line and to the solenoid valve for the APU fuel feed system. An advisory indication is displayed during this mode by a legend marked PRIME BOOST PUMP ON. Prime pump capacity is not enough to prime an engine when the opposite engine is running. Engines should there-fore be primed individually with both engines off. The prime/boost pump is actuated and the engine prime valve is opened whenever the engine starter is operating. This pro-vides fuel pressure to aid in a successful engine start. When the engine speed reaches starter dropout speed, engine fuel prime valve will close and the prime/boost pump will also stop operating if the FUEL PUMP switch is OFF. Power to operate the prime boost system is from the battery bus through a circuit breaker marked FUEL PRIME BOOST.
2.30 FUEL QUANTITY INDICATING SYSTEM.
All internal fuel is continuously gaged with the FUEL QTY gage system (Figure 2-8). The system consists of two tank unit sensors (probes), one in each tank, a dual channel fuel quantity gage conditioner, and a dual channel low-level warning system. The tank units are connected to the fuel quantity gages marked FUEL QTY 1-2 on the central display panel. A separate total fuel quantity readout nu-merically displays the total quantity of fuel on board. The system may be checked out by pressing the FUEL IND TEST pushbutton on the miscellaneous switch panel. The vertical scales of the FUEL QTY indicator and the digital readout should show a change, and the #1 and #2 FUEL LOW caution legends should .ash. When the button is released, the scales and digital readout will return to the original readings. The fuel quantity indicating system is powered by the No. 1 ac primary bus through a circuit breaker, marked NO. 1 AC INST.
2.30.1 Fuel Low Caution Legend. Two low-level sen-sors, one on each probe, provide signals which activate two low-level caution legends indicating #1 FUEL or #2 FUEL. Those legends .ash when the fuel level decreases to approximately 172 pounds in each tank. The illumination of these legends does not mean a .xed time period remains before fuel exhaustion, but is an indication that a low fuel condition exists The fuel-low caution legends are powered by the No. 1 dc primary bus through a circuit breaker marked FUEL LOW WARN.
