Has anyone drained the Preservative Oil from their new Lycoming engine
AFTER installion of the engine on the airframe? The Service Instruction
No 1472 says to do it PRIOR to installing the engine, but it is not
possible to install the engine and then run it within 6 months of
installation. Any tips?

Yep, I drained my preservative oil right before my first engine run. The
engine had long since been installed on the airplane.

Ignore it at install time, but do replace it with regular oil before
first start-up.
#1472 may be warranted when there is a simple engine EXCHANGE with all
the hoses (etc.) in place already.....
do not archive

Ditto. Make sure to pull the plugs and get them good and clean.
Lots of, uh, stuff in there.

I left it in, until engine was installed and connected..
