Mixing turbine oil

Jon
Changing oil from BP2380 to Aeroshell 500
Refer to the applicable engine maintenance manual for procedure for changing engine oil type.

May cause issues with oil seals, and can dislodge carbon already formed thus blocking oil nozzles.

Not recommended for high time engines.

Cheers
