Cylinder Removal: Lycoming

- In this video I look at the process to remove an aircraft cylinder from a Lycoming engine.
The decision was made to remove this cylinder from an O-320-E2G engine after it failed a differential compression test and bore scope inspection. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
Finally a video showing solutions when things go bad. I don't know if I have ever done major maintenance where a monkey wrench was thrown into the fray. Thanks for the help!!!
Thank you, very much. I have a Grumman AA1-A with an O-235 C2c. I need to pull #3 for a heli-coil replacement on the upper spark plug. Cheers!
Nice 👍
In the process of looking over my IO-360. Good stuff.
What is your IO-360 engine going to power?
@@fastbackflying853 I just recently bought a 1968 Mooney M20C, with the motor. The original motor that was in it, had the O-360-A1D, but I did some research and found that you can upgrade to the IO-360-A1A variant. Gonna be a nice project.
Wow that will be very nice indeed. I would be very interested to hear what you get for cruise speed and fuel burn. I have 4 Mooney aircraft that I currently look after and a fair amount of flying time in them as well. Do you have electric gear or manual?
@@fastbackflying853 still have the manual gear. Ive heard its better to keep the manual because of easier maintenance than the electric…Made a spelling error, on my last comment. I bought the Mooney without the motor, and so I just recently bought a used IO-360.
Thank you for this excellent video.
I am really glad you enjoyed it.
Been nice to share "what the scope saw, did a leak- down lead to a valve issue? Will you be doing the valve job/guides hone
Or exchange cyl.? Thanks for the looks-see :-)
Borescope showed burnt exhaust valve and piston pin plug wear. DCT indicated leaking exhaust valve.
We will have a follow up video explaining this along with other details and the installation of the new cylinder.
Valve guide was worn beyond limit and bore was also outside tolerance. A new cylinder assembly will be installed.
@@fastbackflying853 thank you for the clarification will look forward to fallow-ups
You're very welcome.
Seems everything in that motor is tight / siezed.
Yes it really is. Very high time engine and old. It's going to be having a serious amount of work done to get it to an airworthy condition again.
Do you do work on Jabiru engines ?
I don't have any experience working on the Jabiru engines.
show me the valves
thanks
What part of the valves are you looking to see from inside the cylinder or them sitting out on the table? I got a small video of a borescope inspection on an IO 550 that I could put up if it was of interest?
