Oil SystemOil System
• Components– Oil Pump
• Positive displacement pump located within engine case
– Oil Cooler• Incorporates a bypass valve
which isolates the cooler when the oil temperature is less than 180°F
– Oil Filter– Sump (Oil Pan)
• 8 quart capacity

Oil SystemOil System
• Engine should be operated with between 6 and 8 quarts of oil
• Oil and oil filter should be changed every 50 hours after engine break-in
• See section 8 of POH for approved and correct grades of oil

Oil SystemOil System
• Abnormal Conditions– Oil annunciator will illuminate if:
• Oil temperature exceeds 240°F
• Oil pressure is less than 10 PSI

Cooling SystemCooling System
• Accomplished through the combined effort of the oil system and air cooling
• Oil System – Air passes over the oil cooler drawing heat away from the oil returned to the engine
• Air Cooling – Baffels in the engine cowl direct outside air down through the cylinders and out the underside of the cowl

Air Induction SystemAir Induction System
• Air passes through a dry-foam air filter, through the throttle butterfly valve, into the engine manifold, and then into the cylinder combustion chambers
• Alternate Air– Use if main induction
becomes clogged– Pilot will note loss of engine
power and/or roughness– Source is inside cowl– Unfiltered air

Ignition SystemIgnition System
• Dual ignition system– 2 spark plugs per cylinder
• Two engine driven magnetos provide electricity for spark– Right Magneto
• Lower Right and Upper Left Spark Plugs
– Left Magneto• Upper Right and Lower
Left Spark Plugs

Exhaust SystemExhaust System
• Exhaust manifold connects each cylinder to the muffler
• Two mufflers, left and right
• Exhaust gasses vented at the underside of the engine cowl
• Heat exchanger on right muffler provides cabin heat

Engine ControlsEngine Controls
• Power Lever– Single lever that controls both
throttle position and propeller governor position
• Throttle– Controls amount of air
metered to cylinders from the throttle valve
• Mixture– Controls mixture control valve
located in the engine driven fuel pump
