solenoid is a twoposition valve electrically opened and spring
loaded closed. With the valve energized to the open position, fuel
flows through an external line to the starting fuel manifold. The
start fuel manifold is a twopiece assembly with four rigidlymounted
starting fuel nozzle attaching points. Fuel flows into the starting
nozzles located at the 2, 4, 8, and 10 o'clock positions at the rear
of the combustor housing. The nozzles inject atomized fuel into the
combustion chamber during the starting sequence. The following
subparagraphs discuss the two fuel flow systems.
