NOTE: The engine serial numbers above are based on current production records and

(2) Spares - Not affected
B. Reason
AE 3007 Series engines have experienced several 1st-stage compressor blade failures.
Investigation of the failed blades indicated that it the inlet guide vane (IGV) angle is at the upper
limit of the tolerance band of 34.5 to 35.5 degrees, high 1st-stage blade stresses could result.
‘The higher 1st-stage blade stresses may initiate a fatigue crack, which could result in the loss
of a blade airfoil If the IGV angle is set to the nominal or the lower limit of the tolerance band,
‘1st-stage blade stresses remain within acceptable levels. The IGV setting angle will be
reduced by three degrees to prevent possible high 1st-stage blade stresses,
©. Description
‘This service bulletin gives you the procedure to reduce the IGV setting angle three degrees
closed. This change to the vane angle setting applies to the IGVs only,
D. Approval
‘Technical aspects are FAA approved.

‘one of the rod-ends of the tumbuckle (40) in alignment with the match-mark made in step nat
28.7).
NOTE: This match—-mark will ensure the body of the tumbuckle is rotated properly, and
will compensate for any movement ofthe rod-ends in their attachments while the
‘tumbuckle body is rotated.
NOTE: tis optional to use an outside caliper to determine the overall ength (reference)
of the tumbuckle (tip of the upper rod-end to the tip of the lower rod-end) both
before and after the adjustment is made. This reference can be used to ensure
proper turnbuckle adjustment.
(9) Bend the lock tabs (that secure the two jam-nuts (20 and 60)) (to approximately 45° , up or
down as appropriate) of the two lock tab washers (30 and 60) on the inlet guide vane
‘tumbuckle assembly.

CAUTION: _ ITIS VERY IMPORTANT TO CORRECTLY IDENTIFY AND RECORD THE
DIRECTION OF ROTATION USED TO LOOSEN THE JAM-NUT ON THE
UPPER ROD-END BEARING. IF THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION IS NOT
CORRECTLY IDENTIFIED AND RECORDED, THE INLET GUIDE VANE ANGLE
WILL NOT BE SET TO THE CORRECT ANGLE AND ENGINE DAMAGE
COULD RESULT.
(11) Record the direction of rotation (clockwise or counter-clockwise) used to loosen the =
' jam-nut (20 oF 60, as appropriate) on the upper rod-end bearing (Ret. Fig. 3 for
orientation.
you loosened the jam-nut (20) on the upper rod-end bearing by turning the jam-nut (20)

Rotate the turnbuckle body (40) 360° (six flats) in the CW direction
Make sure the rotation of the turnbuckle body is making the turnbuckle longer.
Make sure to monitor the matchmarks made in step 2.8.6) and 2.8.(7), while
rotating the tumbuckle body (40). The match-mark on the centering button (on the
inlet guide vane actuator ring-and-button assembly) should move below the
match-mark on the rubbing pad (Ref. Fig. 5 (Sheet 2 of 4) (CORRECT
ADJUSTMENT).
‘After completing the rotation of the tumbuckle body (40), the match-mark on the
tumbuckle body (40) should be in the same position as it was in step 2.B.(12)(a)..
Make sure that the match-mark on the centering button (on the inlet guide vane
actuation ring~and-button assembly) is below the match-mark on the rubbing pad
(Ref. Fig. 5 (Sheet 2 of 4) (CORRECT ADJUSTMENT).
NOTE: The distance between the match-marks on the centering button and the
rubbing pad should be approximately 0.060 in (1.52 mm).
41 Ifthe match-mark on the centering button (on the inlet guide vane actuation
‘ing-and-button assembly) is below the match-mark on the rubbing pad
(Ret, Fig. 5 (Sheet 2 of 4) (CORRECT ADJUSTMENT), go to step 2.8.(12)(f),
NOTE: Itis possible thatthe resistance ofthe IGV actuation ring and button
assembly will cause the torquetube to move instead of the IGV
actuation ring and button assembly.
ifthe match mark on the centering button and the rubbing pad does not indicate
movement, verify IGV turnbuckle adjustment by looking at the maich-mark on
the forward or aft torquetube mount bracket and the torquetube assembly. The
‘match-mark on the torquetube assembly should move above the match-mark on
the forward or aft torquetube mount bracket (Ref. Fig. § (Sheet 3 of 4)

match-mark on the turnbuckle body should be in the same position as it was in
step 2.B.(12)(a),
It the match-mark on the centering bution (on the inlet guide vane actuation
ring-and-button assembly) is above the match-mark on the rubbing pad (Ret. Fig. 5
(Sheet 2 of 4) (INCORRECT ADJUSTMENT), the IGV tumbuckle was adjusted
incorrectly. Do the steps that follow:
1 Rotate the tumbuckle body (40) 360" (six fats) in the CCW direction and verity
that all match-marks return to their original positions.
2 Ifthe match-marks do not retum to their original positions, do the steps that
follow:
‘a Remove the engine (Ref. 70-00-00, MM).
Install the replacement engine (Ref. 70-00-00, MM),
Goto step 26.
2 fall the match-marks return to their original positions, verify that the upper
od-end bearing has right-hand threads, (Ref. step 2.8.(11))
Go to the applicable step (2.8.(12) or 2.B.(13)) to adjust the IGV turnbuckle.
Center the upper and lower rod-end bearings (10 and 70, Fig. 3) in their attachments.
‘Align the two lock tab washers (30 and 60) on the turnbuckle body (40) and tighten the
‘wo jam-nuts (20 and 60) on the upper and lower rod-end bearings (10 and 70) finger

(13) Reset the IGV tumbuckle (with left-hand threaded upper rod-end bearing (70)).
CAUTION: THE FOLLOWING STEPS SHOULD ONLY BE ACCOMPLISHED IF THE

Make sure the rotation of the tumbuckle body is making the tumbuckle longer.
Make sure to monitor the match-marks made in stop 2.8,(6) and 2.8.(7), while
rotating the turnbuckle body (40). ‘The match-mark on the centering bution (on the
inlet guide vane actuator ring-and-button assembly) should move below the
‘match-mark on the rubbing pad (Ret. Fig. 5 (Sheet 2 of 4) (CORRECT
ADJUSTMENT).
‘After completing the rotation of the tumbuckle body (40), the match-mark on the
‘tumbuckle body should be in the same position as it was in step 2.B.(13)(a).
(8) Make sure that the match-mark on the centering button (on the inlet guide vane
actuation ring-and-button assembly) is below the match—mark on the rubbing pad
(Ret. Fig. 5 (Sheet 2 of 4) (CORRECT ADJUSTMENT).
NOTE: The distance between the match-marks on the centering button and the
rubbing pad should be approximately 0.060 in (1.52 mm.
