Guys,
I need some help. I?m complying with the AD for inspecting the I.D. of the crankshaft for corrosion on my O-320 and have found that the front plug I removed from the crankshaft doesn?t look the same as the new plug (lycoming p/n STD 1211) that I purchased from A/C Spruce. The plug I removed, which is probably the original that the factory installed, has about a ?? flange around the outer diameter. However, the new plug doesn?t have the flange on it. It just looks like a slightly convexed disc. The part number matches what the Lycoming Parts Manual says is supposed to be installed but I?m concerned about the new plug not looking the same as the one that was removed. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks,
Dave
