Mom is 2 weeks post vax and I have not seen her for a year, so it was time to go have lunch in South Bend!! Got six hours of seat time and 3 hours with mom. We kept our distance, but had a great meal on the deck. The O-320 purred like a kitten, down and back. Oil consumption is still in the 1.5 qt/50 hours range and Oil pressure still looks great. I'm looking for signs she is getting tired.
Those 6 hours put me right at 2400, so I dropped the oil, checked the filter and scoped the valves. No chunks in the screen, and the typical carbon in the filter. Compression tested the cylinders as well- took the data on a cold engine.
