Moe, Brock, Keith, Ray and all. Thanks for the suggestions. I figured somebody
would have similar experience from the sister aircraft. I'll report back when
we nail down the problem.
Phil

HELLO PHIL....There is nothing unique about the 720 oil system, it is the
same as most direct drive lycs. If the O.P. is low at idle (or any RPM)
and the adjustment spring cant compensate for it, The engine is bypassing
oil. Usually, the OP will be high (to high) when the oil is cold, and th
en drop off with the rise in temp. No good news here. Probably camshaft
bearing to engine case clearance?? How much TSOH? Could be the seat tha
t the op ball sits in. These can be changed fairly easily, or the ball it
self?? I have run GSO-480s many hours with this malady, I even used 120
weight oi to help outl, and the engine did not expire. My propeller did
work normally.
Assuming the propellers are steel clamp, counterweighted Hartzells, there
is a large spring that takes the blades to high pitch/ feather. If the
propeller does not get enough engine op, it cannot come out of high pitch
or feather. sorry, but it sounds like an engine problem to me.

Subject: Commander-List: 2010 Fly-in Hotel Information
We've booked a block of rooms for the Fly-In at the Courtyard Marriott in
Hillsboro (just a few miles from the airport) at a rate of $79 for a single king
room or $89 for double/double room (plus taxes). Reservations can be made by
calling the hotel directly: (503)690-1800. Be sure to mention you're with the
Twin Commander Flight Group to get this rate. You can check out the hotel at
www.mariott.com/pdxhs.
These rates are only good through August 19th so be sure to book early.
The Pacific Northwest is beautiful this time of year and we recommend coming
early or staying after the fly-in to explore the incredible sights. Both the
Oregon Coast and Crater Lake are only a 2 hour's drive from Portland, plus there
are many great wineries and golf courses to explore. Portland is a perfect
place for "foodies" with an amazing selection of award winning restaurants.
Can't wait to see all of you and get caught up on what's been happening during
the last year.
~Jim & Sue
