Does an open separator create slightly more airframe drag? This could be the reason for the 3% factor.
GTang, thanks for that. What happens when you continue to advance the power lever beyond 96%? Does ITT, fuel flow and torque continue to rise, or do they also cease increasing?
If the answer to this is YES, then clearly you have an Ng instrument error.
If the answer is NO, and the torque is less than the limit (if the aircraft has a torque limiter fitted), then clearly the Ng governor has a fault.
Omg
By facts given it is tried. Sounds more like A HSI is required. I would think that your trends should be looked at. That will tell you your proplem straight up.
If you know your troubleshooting and how to find what the problems with indicated instruments it's not hard to figure out.
