I have assembled my O 200 and was told by. Aircraft Specialty to use "Hylom
ar AEROGRADE" and silk thread to put the case together. I now have several
friends questioning if this is acceptable to use. I called Penn Yan Aero
who has never heard of this. Anybody have any experience with this or shou
ld I rebuild the engine before I start to fly it?

I believe that is what Cont. recommends and that is the system I used in
the early 90's. Hylomar works well on the valve covers also.

Glenn:
That is SCARY! Penn Yan does not know about that process... That is what
happens when you replace OLD FARTS with Young Whipper-Snappers. The
Knowledge goes out the door.
Hylomar AEROGRADE is just one of the High Temp RTV's being used. This is
NOT the High Temp you get at Home Depot.
This is a sealant/adhesive that can handle the Full Range of Temps, The
vibration and The OIL.
As for the silk thread... Well, that is old and not that good a process.
The thread moves - kinks and causes leaks.
It is left out with the new sealant.
Also check out HINKLE Adhesives/Sealants.
Give a call to Continental or Lycomming, they have approved the process
years ago.
