Abstract
This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) that applies to certain JanAero Devices (JanAero) fuel regulator and shutoff valves used with JanAero combustion heaters that are installed on airplanes. This AD requires you to visually inspect and pressure test for leaks, and, if leaks are found, replace the fuel regulator and shutoff valve used with JanAero combustion heaters. This AD is the result of numerous reports of fuel regulator and shutoff valves leaking fuel. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent fuel leakage in airplanes with these combustion heaters with a consequent hazardous fire.
