  • Page 77: Lockwire Procedure

    LOCKWIRE PROCEDURE Lockwiring is the securing together of two or more parts with lockwire which shall be installed in such a manner that any tendency for a part to loosen will be counteracted by additional tightening of the wire. Wire shall be pulled taut while being twisted and caution must be exercised during the twisting operation to keep the wire tight without over stressing.
  • Page 78 LOCKWIRE PROCEDURE (cont'd) Various examples of lockwiring are shown in Figure 9-2, "General Lockwire Patterns." 1. All items to be lockwired must be properly torqued. Applying torque that is above or below specified limits to obtain alignment of the holes is not permitted. 2.
  • Page 79: Tab Washer Procedure

    TAB WASHER PROCEDURE Tab washers are installed by fitting a tab in a tab slot and bending the remaining tabs firmly against the bolt or nut flat. Tab washers are used in various locations in TCM engines and must not be reused after removal. The tabs that are provided to be bent up against the head flats must be seated firmly, with no scarring of the tabs.

    11-3 EXHAUST BY-PASS VALVE (WASTEGATE) DETAILED DESCRIPTION. The Exhaust By-pass Valve or wastegate used on the L/TSIO-360-RB engine is an oil actuated, butterfly type valve. The exhaust by-pass valve butterfly valve is connected to the actuator by mechanical linkage. The exhaust by-pass valve is installed in the engines exhaust system, near the turbocharger, in an exhaust by-pass pipe that allows some of the exhaust gases to by-pass the turbocharger turbine.
  • Page 88: Variable Absolute Pressure Controller (Vapc) Detailed Description

    11-4 VARIABLE ABSOLUTE PRESSURE CONTROLLER (VAPC) DETAILED DESCRIPTION. The variable absolute pressure controller is designed to maintain deck pressures to provide sea level horsepower at varying altitudes. By means of a sensing port in the pneumatic section of the controller, the outside of the aneroid bellows is subjected to deck pressure. The aneroid bellows is linked to a poppet valve, spring loaded normally closed.
  • Page 89: Turbocharger Lubrication System

    11-5 TURBOCHARGER LUBRICATION SYSTEM Pressurized oil is supplied to the turbocharger from the engine.

    20-1 CYLINDER COOLING Cylinder cooling is accomplished by transferring heat from the cylinder barrel and cylinder head cooling fins to the surrounding airflow. The engine cowling, inner cylinder baffles, peripheral baffles and baffle seals direct cooling airflow evenly around the cylinders providing uniform cylinder temperatures.
  • Page 161 20-2 CYLINDERS, PISTONS AND VALVE DRIVE TRAIN The cylinders, pistons and valve train are the portion of the engine that develop power. The cylinder combustion chamber provides a controlled area for burning fuel/air mixture and converting that heat energy into mechanical energy. Aviation fuel and air is drawn into a cylinder during the intake stroke, compressed by the piston during the compression stroke and then ignited by a high intensity spark from the spark plug.

Turn the crankshaft by hand in the direction of rotation until the piston, in the cylinder being checked, is coming up on its compression stroke.
  • Page 170 10. If the leakage is below the previously determined low cylinder gauge reading, loss past the dynamic seal may be due to piston ring end gap alignment or by the piston and piston rings angular direction in the cylinder bore see Figure 20-11,"Ring Positioning."

Insure propeller area is clear before initiating starting sequence. NOTE. . . If engine has had a new cylinder or cylinders and piston rings installed, start the engine in accordance with the airframe manufacturer's Airplane Flight Manual (AFM.) Operate the engine at 750 RPM for one minute, gradually increasing RPM to 1000 RPM in three minutes.

  • Page 198 23-2 ENGINE ADJUSTMENT AND SETUP Oil Pressure Adjustment The adjusting screw is turned clockwise to increase oil pressure and counterclockwise to decrease oil pressure. With normal operating oil temperature (180° - 200°F), adjust oil pressure to maintain, 30-80 pounds per square inch at full power RPM. Torque locknut and safety as required.
  • Page 199 23-2 ENGINE ADJUSTMENT AND SETUP (continued) Fuel System Adjustment Verify that the aircraft fuel system is operating properly in accordance with the airframe manufacturer's instructions before performing any engine fuel system setup procedures. Adjust the engine fuel system as follows: NOTE : .
