OIL SYSTEM (ENGINE).

2-62. SERVICING OIL SYSTEM: The engine oil level should be checked before each flight and changed
after each 50 hours of engine operation. During oil change the oil screen(s) should be removed and cleaned,
and when installed, the oil filter cartridge replaced. Intervals between oil changes can be increased as much as
100% on engines equipped with full flow (cartridge type) oil filters provided the element is replaced each 50
hours of operation and the specified octane fuel is used. Should fuel other than the specified octane rating for
the power plant be used, refer to the latest revision of Textron Lycoming Service Letter No. L185 for additional
information and recommended service procedures. The engine manufacturer does not recommend oils by
brand names. Use a quality brand Aviation Grade Oil of the proper season viscosity. For information on the
use of detergent oil, refer to Paragraph 2-68 and/or latest revision of Textron Lycoming Service Instruction
Letter No. 1014.
Do not introduce any trade additive to the basic lubricant
unless recommended by the engine manufacturer.
2-63. FILLING OIL SUMP: The oil sump should normally be filled with oil to the mark on the engine dip-
stick. The quantity of oil required for the engines may be found in Table II-I. The specified grade of oil may
be found in Table II-III, the Lubrication Chart, or on the right cowl panel. To service the engine with oil, open
the right cowl panel, and remove the oil filler cap with dipstick.
