Unsafe Condition

Generation of sparks during dry fuel pump operation, which could ignite fuel vapors, and potential ignition source inside the fuel tank caused by steel-to-steel contact during dry fuel pump operation.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Required Actions

Revise the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) to specify conditions for minimum fuel weight requirements and procedures for ground transfer of fuel for certain airplanes. Conduct repetitive inspections to detect discrepancies of the center tank override or override/jettison fuel pump, and replace any discrepant pump with a new or serviceable pump. Restore any override or override/jettison fuel pump without a diffuser to a configuration that incorporates a diffuser. Install a new configuration center tank override or override/jettison fuel pump with a cast-in diffuser, which terminates the AFM revisions and repetitive inspections.
