HI THERE

=0A= =0A= =0A= I WROTE PREVIOUSLY ABOUT A REPETITIVE REQ= UIREMENT TO INSPECT
THE STARTER ADAPTER

= PAUL MILLER
corrected me on= the fact that it is not an AD but a service bulletin

IT REQUIRES an inspection of the starter adapter every 25 hours because= of the design of O ring groove. = and with a limit of 500 hours in service

i never h= eard of it until the engine was in the shop and i was faced with $4=2C000 w= orth of parts

the= danger is that that original starter adapter can fail and pump metal into = the engine..NOT A GOOD THING

SO THE QUESTIONS BECO= ME
1. has your engine been in service=2C or purchased prior to 2002
2. how many hour= s do you have on your starter adapter (usually hours since overhaul)
3=2C have you ever inspecte= d the starter adapter
<= font style=3D"" color=3D"#2672EC">
AND
<= br>there a= re many under 500 hour Lancair out there=3B i would even say that over half= are under 500 hours.

w= hat is the likelihood that the starter drives are being inspected every 25 = hours?
=
what is the like= lihood that owners even know about this issue?

i stand corrected that it is not an AD my mistake
<= font style=3D"" color=3D"#AC193D" face=3D"Comic Sans MS">
yet if someone is buying= or selling a Lancair this is a potential issue
