I am looking for a couple of parts for my Lycoming O-320 A2B, the oil level gage tube, part # 75736 and the oil level gage part # 69116. According to the official LYCOMING AIRCRAFT ENGINES, PARTS CATALOG PC-103, FOR THE O-320, IO-320 AND LIO-320 Series, as supplied to me by Lycoming for narrow deck engines - these are the parts I need.
I have found the tube - plenty of places - but not the gage. I even checked the parts available from Lycoming and THEY don't have. Their search doesn't even recognize the part number.
Part # 69116 does not show up in the "superseded" or "superseding" section of the parts manual.
I have a tube (long, plastic) but not sure it's the right one. It is 11.1/2" long.
Disclaimer: The spelling of the word "gage" comes straight from the Lycoming manual.
I may just find me a plug that fits the top of the tube I have, drill a hole, cut a piece of stainless rod, thread one end, tap the plug and, at 2 quarts a shot, mark the rod.
Anyone know where I can find the part I'm looking for?
For reference I have tried Lycoming, Aircraft Spruce, Aircraft Specialties Services, ECI (Continental engines), Barnstormers, Wicks, Skygeek, Chief Aircraft and a few others.
Help.
