Narrative:

We used the left engine overheat checklist instead of the left engine bleed overheat checklist. Following the engine overheat checklist the engine was shut-down. If the checklist was titled simply l-bleed overheat this error may have been avoided. Supplemental information from acn 262102: we had a left bleed engine bleed out advisory, so I went to engine section and read wrong checklist in engine section. The correct checklist was in the air-conditioning section. Shutdown engine and proceeded to phl for uneventful landing.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: WDB FLT CREW USES WRONG CHKLIST DID NOT NEED TO, BUT SHUTDOWN ENG.

Narrative: WE USED THE L ENG OVERHEAT CHKLIST INSTEAD OF THE L ENG BLEED OVERHEAT CHKLIST. FOLLOWING THE ENG OVERHEAT CHKLIST THE ENG WAS SHUT-DOWN. IF THE CHKLIST WAS TITLED SIMPLY L-BLEED OVERHEAT THIS ERROR MAY HAVE BEEN AVOIDED. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 262102: WE HAD A L BLEED ENG BLEED OUT ADVISORY, SO I WENT TO ENG SECTION AND READ WRONG CHKLIST IN ENG SECTION. THE CORRECT CHKLIST WAS IN THE AIR-CONDITIONING SECTION. SHUTDOWN ENG AND PROCEEDED TO PHL FOR UNEVENTFUL LNDG.
