  2. Fuel control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_control_unit

    Closing the valve too quickly while trying to reduce power output could cause a lean die-out, where the airflow through the engine blows the flame out of the combustion chamber and extinguishes it. Adding fuel too quickly to increase power can damage the turbines due to excessive heat, or the sudden rise in combustion chamber pressure may cause ...
