    I am not an engineer but for me the key to making an engine last relatively longer and live through many overhauls is lubrication. Regular change of high grade lubricants at periods even before usually specified.

    Great video, all this just highlights the antiquated technology behind aircraft engines. If this level of cost and detail was necessary for automobiles, we would still be riding horses. Need new tech and make these better.

    Love videos with this level of detail and explanation. I would love to see more videos like this one and the video where John was actually checking cylinder pressures, looking for stuck valves etc.. Maybe a some videos on do it yourself maintenance for pilots or what to expect on owner assisted annuals etc.. Great work... :-)

    Good info on maintenance,
    But there is no such thing as:
    A top end overhaul, or major overhaul.
    It was either overhauled or it was not.
    §43.2 Records of overhaul and rebuilding.
    (a) No person may describe in any required maintenance entry or form an aircraft, airframe, aircraft engine, propeller, appliance, or component part as being overhauled unless-
    (1) Using methods, techniques, and practices acceptable to the Administrator, it has been disassembled, cleaned, inspected, repaired as necessary, and reassembled; and
    (2) It has been tested in accordance with approved standards and technical data, or in accordance with current standards and technical data acceptable to the Administrator, which have been developed and documented by the holder of the type certificate, supplemental type certificate, or a material, part, process, or appliance approval under part 21 of this chapter.

    Just a question: you mentioned "steel" cylinders. Did you mean cast iron, or actually steel? Also, the nickel cylinders. Are these similar to what are called "Nikasil" (plated aluminum cylinders) used on some aftermarket HD cylinders?

  • @GaryMCurran

    Dan, something they brought up here was 'keystoning' of the cylinder, and this is something I don't understand. There's at least one remanufacturer who offers to remove the keystoning and put in oversized rings in the cylinder. This, according to him, if I understand correctly, is supposed to reduce cylinder and ring wear, and give you a longer time before you have to do a Top Overhaul, assumedly with equal conditions.
    The next time your group gets together, could you ask them about that? I would be interested in hearing about that. Insofar as I know, they don't do it in automobile engines, so why in airplane engines?

    • @Stepclimb
      @Stepclimb 5 років тому +1

      I think what you are asking about is “honing” of the cylinder wall. With the exception of channel chrome cylinders, all cylinders are honed with a distinctive cross-hatch. The cross hatched micro scratches in the cylinder wall is there to retain oil to lubricate and cool the ring-cylinder interface. It is critical that the engine is broken-in correctly with high intercylinder pressures to establish the correct mating of ring-to-cylinder wall interface. If done correctly, the hatching will still be present (with lower peaks and shallower grooves) and will not be filled up with glazed oil.
      Automotive engines are honed as well.
      Removal of the honing will lead to overheated and eventually softened (annealed) rings that will fail to seal in the combustion gasses, leading to a loss of power and excessive blow by, if they don’t fail from fatigue first.
      The cylinder manufacturer you mentioned might be offering channel chrome cylinders.
      Channel chromed cylinders already have micro “cracks” in the chrome cylinder wall, so they don’t need to be honed.
      In these cylinders, instead of chromium steel rings, the rings are chilled cast iron or a softer steel alloy. During break in of channel chrome cylinders, it is the rings that wear against the harder chrome cylinder wall.
