captjames747 4 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 As the title suggests, I am Unable To Cut Engines. When I clock the fuel cut off stitches, thety move, but the engines to not cut. Also after a few seconds they revert back to the "On" position. Anyone else encountered this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfcdowdy 4 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 They are not fuel cut off switches. They are a lock out on the throttle levers so they are not able to close when throttles are brought back to idle. In order to cut the engine you have to raise the red lever and then bring the throttle back to the cut off position. Found that out the hard way when I was testing.

G Sproson 23 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Jon is fully correct, the red levers you are using are essentially "lock and release" levers. Since the fuel cut-off switch is embedded in the throttle lever itself you would end up cutting the fuel off whenever you brought the engines to idle, hence to initiate or cut-off the fuel, you will need to left click to disengage the lock and then left click the base of the throttle to either turn the fuel on or off.

Just my European two cents But on a serious note: if you are used to the Q400 you notice that they have some freaking ideas at Bombardier. But with the C-Series the nailed it IMHO.
