good info

Correct me if I'm wrong

Does the checklist not allude to the fact that correct normal fuel management procedures are used post shutdown....i.e remaining fuel can be used for the operating engine..?

Hence (assuming an engine leak)...the way I read the CL

You would use from the "live engine" tank til FUEL IMBAL displays then balance from the high tank (assuming no tank leak)

If it was a tank leak I don't believe the CL infers you balance from the good side to the leaking tank

Cheers
