 |

The 'IO-540 I got thru Vans appears to be officially listed in the doc
as a YIO-540. The 'experimental' and lower priced engine option. In
other write-ups I see references to XIO-540s.
What's up with that?

You purchased the experimental non-certified version of the engine. The certified costs around $3K more! In reality it is the identical engine, just a different part number....... Call Lycoming, I did.

I have YIO-540 too. Fuel servo, flow divider, fuel nozzles and data plate are different but still must meet same test cell specs.
