Narrative:
After receiving takeoff clearance; I advanced power to approximately 1.10 EPR. Both engines stabilized normally; but when I advanced power toward target reduced EPR of 1.38; the right engine EPR stopped climbing at approximately 1.27 EPR. Meanwhile N2 on the right engine continued to accelerate; attaining 104.0%. The disparity in power was confirmed by the fact that I had to use left rudder to keep the aircraft on the runway centerline. I aborted the takeoff at approximately 70 KTS. We taxied back to the gate and debriefed mechanics. The aircraft had a pre-existing problem with the right eec reflected in the logbook but the problems with the engine were actually so severe that it was unable to produce normal takeoff thrust. After changing aircraft; we continued uneventfully.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: B767-300 ABORTS TKOF AT LAX WHEN R ENG FAILS TO PRODUCE DESIRED THRUST.
Narrative: AFTER RECEIVING TKOF CLRNC; I ADVANCED PWR TO APPROX 1.10 EPR. BOTH ENGS STABILIZED NORMALLY; BUT WHEN I ADVANCED PWR TOWARD TARGET REDUCED EPR OF 1.38; THE R ENG EPR STOPPED CLBING AT APPROX 1.27 EPR. MEANWHILE N2 ON THE R ENG CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE; ATTAINING 104.0%. THE DISPARITY IN PWR WAS CONFIRMED BY THE FACT THAT I HAD TO USE L RUDDER TO KEEP THE ACFT ON THE RWY CTRLINE. I ABORTED THE TKOF AT APPROX 70 KTS. WE TAXIED BACK TO THE GATE AND DEBRIEFED MECHS. THE ACFT HAD A PRE-EXISTING PROB WITH THE R EEC REFLECTED IN THE LOGBOOK BUT THE PROBS WITH THE ENG WERE ACTUALLY SO SEVERE THAT IT WAS UNABLE TO PRODUCE NORMAL TKOF THRUST. AFTER CHANGING ACFT; WE CONTINUED UNEVENTFULLY.
