I need some advice from you engine experts out there: in 2010 I bought a new Lyc XIO-360 from Vans for my -7.
It was run twice at the Lyc factory, then shipped to me.
As part of the paperwork with the engine, there where reports from the two test-runs.
Yesterday I was going over the paperwork in preparation for the very first engine start, and I noticed that both runs had three items which was either described or marked with "rewiew".
I'm wondering of these three items are something I schold be concerned about? Does it need fixing before first flight for example? Or is it normal variations one schould expect from a new engine?
Look in the "variations" column from test-run # 1: (upper right corner)
There's three items listed
Here's the report from test-run #2:
The same three items are marked as "rewiew" in the report.
Is this something to get fixed or be worried about?
I have little detailed knowledge of aircraft engines, so I'm hoping someone out there can tell me what these three remarks actually means?
(Mel or Malon, are you guys out there?
)
