Skyking, I usually make long trips in the region and there are not that many facilities if you have a major problem on an engine. Besides the Aviation Authority in my country based on a bulletin which I have seen by Lycoming not Continental is requesting that you go for a complete overhaul after 12 years. I do regret having to send my engines for OH. I would have felt a lot more confortable flying across the Caribean on my engines before the overhaul.
Let me tell you I am one hundred percent for what you say " if it ainīt broke donīt screw with it "
