Without a reliable and constant infusion of the elements of its basic diet--air, fuel and oil--you airplane won't be going anywhere. Or worse, if this supply of essential nutrients is suddenly cut off enroute--you and your aircraft are in serious trouble. This volume examines the proper care and maintenance of the lines, components, devices, fittings, filters and parts that convey, mix, clean and circulate the vital fluids within your airplane. In Part I, the Fuel System is examined, beginning with carburetion. Next, you will move on to fuel injection, including cleaning of fuel injector nozzles with the proper equipment and solvents. Also included is routine cleaning of fuel and oil strainers, as well as air filter maintenance. How can you tell if dirt is cutting your TBO short? Oil analysis. This section tells you how evaluate the readings, and decide what needs to be done, if anything. Finally, additives are covered. Which are helpful and which are hype? In Part II, Oil Systems, the engine's lifeblood, is covered. As well as being the lubrication for aircraft engines, oil is significant in engine cooling as well. What oil is best? Is it ok to switch oils midway through a TBO run? This section will take you through oil changes and oil filter changes. You will also find out the pros and cons of oil analysis--what it does and does not tell you. Finally, there is a look at the pros and cons of using autogas, including strategies for use.
