Dear A Team,
The engine on my 6A is out for IRAN and depending on how bad the backlog for parts at Lycoming is (I've been warned it's bad) I may get it back someday. In the meantime, I am cleaning up everything on the firewall, Flushing oil lines, New cable end caps, Aviation grade clamps and zip ties, Etc..
Wondering if I should replace the upper engine mounting biscuits (Not to apparent in the pic but one side looks like it has taken a set from 16 years for weight) and the prop hardware. The galling looks mild compared to some of the videos on YouTube but I figure these should be replaced during any prop removal anyways. Is it normal to just trash the bolts and replace with new?
Thanks,
Kirk
