Hi Guys, the aircraft is on a Permit ot Fly in the UK and the rebuild was carried out by the previous owner under supervision of his LAA inspector. So, all legal and proper, but no warranty. I have all the receipts and certificates of conformance for all the parts. I have all the phhotos of the work being undertaken and the parts laid out. A quality job. The guy is a very experienced and competent engineer so I'm confident in the work carried out. Whilst I appreciate anyone can make an error, I would be surprised, but am not taking any chances when it'smy bum on the seat.
On very low idle, just before lean cut out, the pressure was indicating as low as 5psi but no warning light. The POH states the warning light comes on at 10PSI. I have ordered a new gauge that plumbs directly into the oil system so I can cross reference the existing electric gauge which is automotive aftermarket.
Will be interesting to see what this actually reads at the weekend.
Cheers
Gavin
