Governor Oil Line

R.P.Ping

Well Known Member
I don't have the oil line from the engine nose to the governor. I would like to fab one from .035 3/8 stainless tube. Could someone please send a few pictures to give me an idea of how to bend/route the line? I'm running an O-320.
Thanks in advance.

There are several different tubes for various model engines and their installations. This is a critical part and the subject of an AD note. Be very careful with bend radius and kinks and nicks. Lycoming allows the use of a hose here instead of the rigid S/S tube..you might look into that.
Lycoming SI 1435 deals with this.
Good Luck,
Mahlon
 
Thanks, yes I am aware of all that you have mentioned. I would just like to see some pictures of the line installation to see what I can do. If someone could provide some pictures that would be a great help.
