Regarding ETOPS implications - surely it doesn't matter how many engines you've got if you haven't got any fuel.

So I wonder what the rationale is for suspending Air Transat’s ETOPS certification? Could it have something to do with the fact that this incident initially involved an engine failure, or perhaps because the fuel leak may have arisen as a consequence of engine maintenance problems?

Can anyone explain?
