Oil life in 912is

in 912iS Technical Questions 4 years ago

Any thoughts on damage that might be caused by exceeding the 50 hour oil change requirement?

    You can go past 50 hrs., but I always tell people the plane's oil is its blood and like a person if you infect or contaminate the blood you either shorten the life or die. For the cost of 3 liters of oil why play the odds.

    The official oil-change requirement is actually 100 hours, unless you are burning leaded fuel more than 30% of the time.
