A method of monitoring bleed air provided from a first engine to a second engine of a multi-engine aircraft includes operating the first engine in a powered mode to provide motive power to the multi-engine aircraft; and when the first engine is in the powered mode: actuating an air valve to open an air flow path from a compressor section of the first engine to a plurality of parts of the second engine, after the step of actuating the air valve, determining a change in a temperature in a main gas path of the first engine at a location in the main gas path at or downstream of a combustor of the first engine, and in response to determining that the change is below a threshold, executing an action with respect to the first engine, the air valve, and/or the second engine.
