oil consumption

Kevin

I add oil after 6 qts in 1/ qt increments. I burn about 1 qt in 20 hrs. No oil on belly other than residue and none on the tailfeathers. I try and hold it around six and if going for an hour or two then will take off with six. Any more then seven it "evapourates" quickly. In fact I think it is blown back into the engine by way of seperator.

The engines are both relatively new tcm remans with 3250 hrs on them over past year and half.

I change oil when convenient btween 25-30 hrs and at 50 I change the filter. Also feather engines on ground when doing the 50 hrs change to turn over the prop oil.

fyi

Bob
