Anyone have any contacts for hanger space at KEUG.I have a fluctuating oil pressure problem and looks like the plane is going to be here at least a month .Thought I had the problem resolved but it returned.Oil pressure increases during flight to redline -it is not likely a gauge issue as i have compared the electronic gauge with a mechanical and they match.Any one have a similar experience. Engine is a narrow deck 540 converted to an io-540.I overhauled it myself 350+ hours ago with new cylinders ,cam, lifters.I replaced the cage type oil pressure regulator with an eci adjustable.My plan is to remove oil filter adapter (b&C)and clean gallery to sump and remove and clean ball seat and springs on pressure regulator.If problem doesnt resolve it means engine tear down.One other symptom that is that pressure always ran about 8 pounds high for the first 5 minutes of flight the would normalize,I have been advised this is in fact not normal.Any other thoughts from the engine gurus-thanks Jim [quote][b]

I need more details on the high oil pressure first five minutes.. what is the oil pressure? what is the oil temperature? I see as high as 110psi on take off with my oil at 100f, lasts about 2-3 minutes until the oil is warmed up (aka 165 or above) than the pressure goes into the normal 89-92 psi range. 115psi and below is normal for the first 5 minutes (start-up taxiing and takeoff) per Lycoming.. what are you seeing?

My initial readings are as high as 95-97 psi for about 5 minutes .It doesn't necessarily change proportionally with temp .In climb my temps will rise to low 200's on a warm day but settle to about 190 in typical cruise.Oil pressure has dropped to 85 psi range after approximately 5 minutes, i incorrectly assumed that was when the vernitherm opened.Did I answer your question?

Hmm, one email stripped the image, one didn't. Normal redline should be 95, 115 during start and warmup, and minimum 55, except 25 for idling.

Sounds like your oil pressure is normal, unless it is fluctuating wildly. Not the max for startup and warmup.

I agree! Nothing wrong with those temps or pressure. Sounds quite normal actually.

concerning the temps-
Oil Temperature: The maximum permissible oil temperature is 245°F (118°C). For maximum engine life,
desired oil temperature should be maintained between 165°F (73.8°C) and 200°F (93.3°C) in level flight
cruise conditions.

the owners manual from the Cherokee shows 99 as red line-but the concern is the progressive gradual increase in oil pressure during flight it will reach 99 which is the max the gauge will read.This is a significant change from the previous 350 hours.It fluctuates 3-4 pounds as it gradualy increase.

I would try to check all the connections from your sender all the way back to the EIS. It turned out I had a failed "but" connector under my panel. Maybe in flight it vibrates, then as the resistance changes, it drives to the max indication of 99 PSI. Worth a try, eliminate the simple stuff first, cheap stuff. Try putting a continuity tester on it and have someone wiggle the wire, and see if you have any problems. Good luck. It took my 3 weeks to figure mine out, I just didnt want to think it could be so simple as a bad connection.

Consider that the only thing high oil pressure will hurt is seals,
possibility of leaks. Cessna in fact runs around 110 psi in their IO-360
engines in 172s these days, with nothing different about the engine
other than the adjustment of oil pressure relief.

I've put out some feelers. In the meantime, maybe contact Synergy Air, an RV build assist outfit located in Eugene. They might know someone with available space. Their website is at http://synergyair.com/contact-us/
And phone number is:

Jim, try Tom Hastings at 541-912-6402. Tell Tom you got his name through me from Dick Epplett in Bend, OR, who is a friend of mine. Dick used to own a hangar at the Eugene airport, but now is retired in Bend and owns a hangar there. He says that if anyone might know of something available for you, Tom’s the guy. I don’t know Tom, but Dick is a great guy, built two experimentals, was a dentist in Eugene, etc. Upstanding guy. He also said that if Tom didn’t know of anything that there are other names we could try.

All the best of luck!

Anyone have any contacts for hanger space at KEUG.I have a fluctuating oil pressure problem and looks like the plane is going to be here at least a month .Thought I had the problem resolved but it returned.Oil pressure increases during flight to redline -it is not likely a gauge issue as i have compared the electronic gauge with a mechanical and they match.Any one have a similar experience. Engine is a narrow deck 540 converted to an io-540.I overhauled it myself 350+ hours ago with new cylinders ,cam, lifters.I replaced the cage type oil pressure regulator with an eci adjustable.My plan is to remove oil filter adapter (b&C)and clean gallery to sump and remove and clean ball seat and springs on pressure regulator.If problem doesnt resolve it means engine tear down.One other symptom that is that pressure always ran about 8 pounds high for the first 5 minutes of flight the would normalize,I have been advised this is in fact not normal.Any other thoughts from the engine gurus-thanks Jim
