 |
|
I've been hunting around for guidance on the installation of the NPT fittings on the engine (such as the VA-128 and the AN823-8D) and have, so far, come up short. Are there specific torque ranges? What thread lube/sealant should be used?

I've been using the torque tables from a reprint of the Lycoming
Overhaul Manual. Lycoming part number 60294-X where X varies on the
printing. I think mine is 60294-7.
Contact me off list if you'd like a PDF of just the torque tables from
the manual.

Snug is good for tapered pipe fittings.
