Spanish term

araña distribuidora de combustible del motor

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Aerospace / Aviation / Space
Taken from an investigation report regarding a plan crash:

Se llevó a cabo el desarme del motor y se pudo comprobar lo siguiente:
- La araña distribuidora de combustible del motor no tenia placa de datos de
identificación por lo cual no tendría trazabilidad, sin embargo esta se encontraba
correctamente armada de acuerdo al Manual de Servicio y funcionaba.

Thank you

engine fuel distributor spider

e.g. "However I have never heard of a fuel icing incident on the TB20/21 and they use the same engine (IO-540) crucially with the same fuel distribution spider on top which one would logically think must be the weakest point as the very thin steel fuel pipes (leading to the injectors) are exposed to the full high speed flow of outside air."

PS. Not really my main area but have owned a number of planes and am a qualified flying instructor.

Transferencia de combustible:

Left and right defuelling valves connect their respective engine fuel manifolds with the fuelling manifold.

Fuel can be pumped from any tank to the corresponding engine fuel manifold by operating the tank fuel pumps. Opening the appropriate defuelling valve routes the fuel from the corresponding engine fuel manifold to the fuelling manifold.

También se le conoce como "fuel distribution manifold"

The fuel lines to the fuel distribution manifold were disconnected and no fuel was present. Several fuel injector lines were disconnected and one or two drops of fuel were noted. Further inspection of the fuel tanks revealed the left outboard fuel tank contained approximately one quart of 100 low lead fuel.
