Hi All,
I have just completed the five year hose replacement. carried
out a check flight and all seems well. oil pressure 4 bar t's and p's
good. no leeks found. today I went to the airfield, checked the oil and
found it took a pint of oil to top it up. tried to start the engine but
it woud'nt start. I checked the plugs and found them all oiled up.
All the oil hoses are correctly fitted, and can't see any kinks. the
engine has only done 90hrs.
All help much apreciated.
Cheers Danny. G-ceri

First thing.
When you refilled the engine did you follow the procedure to get oil round the engine, cooler and filter before starting or just fill the oil tank and then start.

Hi Danny
I don't know if this would cause the symptoms, but have you got the
connections to the oil tank the right way round? It's very easy to connect
them outlet to the inlet and vice versa! I did it when fitting an oil
thermostat but picked it up before starting. It sounds like you have had a
head of oil draining back into the engine.
Good luck.
Regards
Pete

Did you purge the air from the oil system by pressurizing the oil tank?

Hi Danny
Be interested to hear what you eventually find - if you can do it so can I!!
It's got to be something simple as all was well before the job was done.
