Gas turbine fuel manifold pressure is established by which of the following actions?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option C — Rotating the gas generator.
Fuel manifold pressure is directly dependent on the rotational speed of the gas generator. As the gas generator accelerates, the engine-driven fuel pump increases output, raising the pressure within the fuel manifold to ensure proper atomization and distribution through the fuel nozzles for stable combustion during engine operation.
