Hey all, recently acquired an 8A. Been slowly cleaning it up and fixing things. Biggest issue was an oil leak that would coat to midship after 30 mins of flying.
I’ve totally degreased it and done a few things.
Oil pressure sensor was leaking, replaced
Tightened return tubes
Check compression all mid 70s
Checked TQ on through bolts
It’s still leaking.
Cylinder base o rings bad?
Engine has 374 hrs SMOH
