Our C182RG suffered a prop strike in some soft ground. The engine has been stripped down and fortunately no damage was found resulting from the prop strike. However the engine has extensive damage resulting from pitting on the camshaft followers. Im told this is down to lack of use combined with the design of the Lyco camshaft.
We're considering replacing the camshaft from these guys
Centri-Lube Page Cost is around $700 additional plus shipping. My question is will this help avoid a similar issue going forward or is higher utilisation the only real solution.
Also anything else we can do to protect the engine ? Its kept in a leaky hangar in Scotland.
