A postaccident examination of the engine, fuel filters, high pressure fuel pump, fuel control unit, and propeller governor revealed no preimpact anomalies that would have resulted in a loss of engine power. Approximately 30 gallons of fuel was drained from both fuel tanks. The loss of engine power could not be determined.
