Colyn,

 

“not recommended for low altitude the first time”


I’m not sure where the logic is in that statement as it relates to a low fuel flow problem. If your fuel flow is low enough that temperatures are a problem, then increasing the fuel flow to the engine is the solution to the problems that are caused when the engine is NOT getting enough fuel. It doesn’t make any difference what the altitude is.

 

The statement only makes sense if turning on the high boost pump would flood the engine. However, my comment was clearly directed to the resolution of problems caused by LOW fuel flow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Been there, done that, more than once.
