I was talking to a flight eng that has experience on a and b models c130's,he stated that these and early e models did not have water removal systems in the fuel tanks by the pumps so that was why fuel contaimination checks where done at a high power setting.

well guys,thanks for the advice and help.....I feel better that there are other people that are aware of the procedure for fuel conaimination checks.Hopefully with the new -1 the info will be in there,just wondering what will be omitted....lol

In the E-model C130-1 under fuel contaimination check ,it states that the check must be done under a high power condition/setting. In the C130-1 for h model fuel contaimination it just states monitor rpm,and tit,and torque for approx 1 min. Was high power setting ommitted by mistake in the h model -1 or with the -15 engines its not needed? Thanks in advance!!!
