description Fuel systems of gas turbine engines of aircraft, and associated methods are provided. The fuel systems and methods can permit reverse purging of one or more fuel manifolds of a gas turbine engine to prevent coking in some modes of operation. A fuel system includes first and second fuel manifolds fluidly connectable to a combustor of the gas turbine engine. A valve is operatively disposed between the second fuel manifold and a fuel supply line for controlling fuel supply to the second fuel manifold. A reservoir includes a movable piston disposed therein and dividing the reservoir into a first chamber and a second chamber. The first chamber is fluidly connectable to the fuel supply line or to a fuel purge line via the valve. The second chamber is in fluid communication with the second fuel manifold to receive residual fuel from the second fuel manifold.
