摘要

A method and kit for preserving a fuel system of an aircraft engine outside of an engine test cell in preparation for a period of inactivity of the aircraft engine are disclosed. The method comprises: supplying preservation fluid to the fuel system of the aircraft engine; generating a signal to cause the opening of a valve of the fuel system using a control device other than the electronic engine controller of the aircraft engine; and driving a fuel pump of the fuel system to cause some of the preservation fluid to flow through the open valve and in at least part of the fuel system of the aircraft engine.
