COMPLIANCE: Required as indicated unless already accomplished.

To preclude failure of the fuel flow transducer and resultant leakage of fuel within the engine compartment, prior to further flight accomplish the following on both engines:

A) Remove engine cowling and inspect Cessna P/N 9910395-9 (Aerosonics Corp 33184-2) fuel flow transducer on each engine for serial number.

B) If the P/N 9910395-9 transducer has a serial number included in the block 2364 through 2930, replace the transducer prior to further flight with a transducer whose serial number is not included in the block 2364 through 2930, reinstall the engine cowling, and accomplish Item D of this AD.

C) If the P/N 9910395-9 transducer serial number is not included in block 2364 through 2930, reinstall the engine cowling, and accomplish Item D of this AD.

D) Make the prescribed entry in the aircraft maintenance record indicating compliance with this AD when B, or C has been accomplished.

E) Any equivalent method of compliance with this AD must be approved by the Chief, Aircraft Certification Program, Federal Aviation Administration, Room 238, Terminal Building No. 2299, Mid-Continent Airport, Wichita, Kansas 67209.

This amendment becomes effective on July 22, 1980, to all persons except those to whom it has already been made effective by an airmail letter from the FAA dated June 24, 1980.
