I've got about 35 hours on the plane now. This spring/summer, probably when I get close to 50 hours, I plan to hire a local retired AME to teach me how to do a major inspection including mag timing check, compression test, etc.
Question - am i ok to wait to 50 hours to do my first spark plug inspection and cleaning? I've been running mineral oil, and am just now changing to Aeroshell W 15W50 (what does the leading "W" indicate, by the way?).
