Measurement of crankcase pressure
Fig. 2 09161
Magnetic plug NOTE: The thread for the magnetic plug (2) must be M12x1.5 (met-
ric) and M8 for the crankshaft locking screw (3) (use always
new gasket).
Pressure values The pressure in the crankcase at (full throttle) must not exceed the prevail-
ing ambient pressure by more than 0.45 bar (6.53 psi) at 90 °C (194 °F) oil
temperature.
If crankcase pressure and measuring pressure of the vacuum readings
and all operational data (flight attitude, temperatures, etc.) are within the
specified limits, then it can be assumed that the oil circuit is working cor-
rectly.

WARNUNG
WARNING
Non-compliance can result in serious injuries or death!
If the readings exceed the pressure limits, then the
flow resistance in the oil return line from oil sump to oil
tank is too high in the current engine installation (con-
tamination, restrictions of cross-section, etc.). This
condition is unsafe and must be rectified immediately.
