Engine mishandling question, 6 cylinder continential
I am wondering if anyone has any input on what could happen to an engine if the prop was to redline for near on half an hour. We are talking a six cylinder continental here, close to the end of its life.
The engineers found shards of steel all through it, in the oil filter and everywhere, and I’m pretty sure it would be probably directly related to the fact that it red lined for so long, but am looking for another opinion.
