B. Description
This Service Bulletin introduces a repetitive inspection
threshold for engines with more than 6,000 flight hours ETSN to
inspect the OBV for fuel leakage and loose rosan fittings, all
the OBV system rod links for wear on the uniball, and fuel lines
for proper routing every 880 flight hours.
C. Compliance
Category 2
GE recommends that you do this Service Bulletin for engines with
more than 6,000 flight hours ETSN and that had either initial
inspection performed as specified in CF34-8C S/B  or75-0019
repeat inspection performed as specified in this Service
Bulletin.
GE recommends that you do this Service Bulletin as soon as
possible without effect on revenue service but before 880 flight
hours from the Revision 3 issue date of this Service Bulletin. Do
again this inspection at intervals of every 880 flight hours or
less.
Impact A
This recommendation is to address a condition that may affect
Flight Safety.
NOTE:This Service Bulletin can be done on wing or in shop.
This Service Bulletin is offered to improve the reliability or
performance of your GE product, or to help prevent the occurrence
of the event or condition described in this Service Bulletin. If
the operator elects not to participate in the bulletin, that
decision will be taken into consideration by GE in evaluating
future product performance issues that may arise in the
operator's fleet.
D. Concurrent Requirements
None.
E. Reason
(1) Objective:
To reduce significant events and reduce the potential for fuel leaks and
undercowl fire events.
(2) Condition:
There have been two undercowl fire events due to OBV separated fittings.
Refer to the All Operator's Wire (AOW) 17-CF34-006.
In addition, the fleet recently experienced a fitting detachment without a
fire event.
(3) Cause:
Most likely root cause indicates that the progressive wear on the OBV
manifold support links promotes resonance loads that exceed the normal
forces on the port/fitting threads, leading to OBV housing fuel port thread
wear.
(4) Inspection:
This repetitive inspection is for the CF34-8C engines with more than 6,000
flight hours ETSN OBV systems to identify possible loose or leaking OBV
fittings, worn system rod links, or improper routing of the fuel lines.
NOTE:This repetitive inspection is a containment plan only. The final
improvement will be provided by a future Service Bulletin.
(5) Substantiation:
Substantiation is by fleet experience.
F. Approval

(c) Use finger force (thumb and index) to do an inspection of the two ends
of the support links for loose or missing uniballs. Make sure that the
link rod assemblies (01-310, 01-310A, 01-450, 01-560A, 01-560B, and
01-570B, 75-00-01,  Sheet 1, Sheet 2, and Sheet 3) show noFigure 4,
radial displacement. Refer to  and  for details.Figure 3 Figure 4
(d) If there is movement of the installed rod end, remove the rod end and
do a check for serviceability criteria as follows:
1 Push the right side of the rod end and measure the left side rod end
uniball proud dimension.
2 Push the left side of the rod end and measure the right side rod end
uniball proud dimension.
NOTE:Unacceptable wear is present if the uniball can be displaced
radially by finger force and the face of the rod end uniball is
observed to protrude 0.020 inch (0.51 mm) or less from the adjacent
parallel face of the rod end  and (Figure 3 Figure 4, Sheet
4).

For those cases, the parts identified with the base CSNs or part
numbers are used for the applicable removal/installation instructions
and must be used in accordance with GEK 105092, CF34-8C IPC.
NOTE:Before you disassemble the removed link rod assembly, the total length
from rod end to rod end must be measured.
NOTE:The inspection for serviceability of the two rod ends must be done
from the link rod assemblies.
(f) In order not to use alignment tooling and reduce the adjustment cycle,
it is recommended to measure the removed link rod assemblies (01-310,
01-310A, 01-450, 01-560A, 01-560B, and 01-570B, 75-00-01, Figure 4,
Sheet 1, Sheet 2, and Sheet 3) before disassembly, set-up the length as
the baseline for new part setup, count the threads, and measure the rod
end uniball center to center length.
NOTE:If no serviceable link rod assembly hardware is available for the
replacement, the engine can be returned to service for an additional
50 flight cycles if the OBV rosan rings and fittings are examined for
fuel leaks and looseness as in Table 1. The inspection must be done at
customer's convenience, but it must be done once each day.
(g) Document the findings in the Inspection Chart Form  and(Figure 9)
send the results to GE. Refer to step 3.B.(8).
(h) For replaced links and if the links passed the inspections above only,
do an inspection of the rod end assemblies for alignment/twisting.
Refer to  and do as follows:Figure 10
NOTE:The rod end assembly is capable of rotation about the rod end axis
(twist) as shown in Figure 10.
1 Use hand force to turn the rod ends.
2 Do an inspection of the rod end alignment to make sure that the rod
end surfaces do not touch the bushings. If realignment is necessary,
use hand force to align the rod end relative to the bushings as
shown in Figure 10.
(i) Make sure that the E-seal (01-420, 75-00-01,  Sheet 5) isFigure 4,
installed.
(j) Install again the single latch V-retainer coupling (01-410) to the OBV
plenum assembly (01-430, 01-430A, 01-430B, or 01-430C) side only.
(k) Torque the single latch V-retainer coupling (01-410) to 110.4 to 129.6
lb in. (12.4 to 14.6 Nm).

(6) Make sure that the OBV tubes [fuel drain 1 pipe assembly (01-310,
71-71-01), OBV muscle fuel supply tube (01-170, 73-21-05), and OBV muscle
fuel return tube (01-130)] attaching hardware is correctly installed. Refer
to Figure 11 and do as follows:
(a) With hand force, try to move the OBV tubes in all directions, near the
attachment points on the clip-P (P-clip) (01-320, 71-71-01) and
cushioned clamps (clamps) (01-140 and 01-180, 73-21-05).
(b) If the P-clip (01-320, 71-71-01) and clamps (01-140 and 01-180,
73-21-05) are correctly installed, no sliding across the OBV tubes must
occur. If sliding occurs, then torque again the 12-point bolt (01-340,
71-71-01) that attaches the P-clip (01-320) and the 12-point bolts
(01-150 and 01-190, 73-21-05) that attach the clamps (01-140 and
01-180, 73-21-05) to 32.2 to 37.8 lb in. (3.6 to 4.2 Nm).
(c) The P-clip (01-320, 71-71-01) and clamps (01-140 and 01-180, 73-21-05)

must be firmly attached. If they are not firmly attached, torque again
the 12-point bolt (01-340, 71-71-01) that attaches the P-clip (01-320)
and the 12-point bolts (01-150 and 01-190, 73-21-05) that attach the
clamps (01-140 and 01-180) to 32.2 to 37.8 1b in. (3.6 to 4.2 Nm).
(d) If after you torque the 12-point bolt (01-340, 71-71-01) and 12-point
bolts (01-150 and 01-190, 73-21-05) the sliding or looseness continues,
replace the P-clip (01-320, 71-71-01) and clamps (01-140 and 01-180,
73-21-05). After you replace the P-clip (01-320, 71-71-01) and clamps
(01-140 and 01-180, 73-21-05), torque the 12-point bolt (01-340,
71-71-01) and 12-point bolts (01-150 and 01-190, 73-21-05) to 32.2 to
37.8 lb in. (3.6 to 4.2 Nm).
(e) Document if there is looseness, a missing P-clamp, or another unusual
condition in the Inspection Chart Form (Figure 9).
