Dennis,
I do have the Lycoming Overhaul manual as well as the Parts Manual and was unable
to figure out 'which was which'. I assumed the rocker I was referring to (with
hole in bottom) was the exhaust rocker but I wanted to be SURE for the reasons
you mentioned.
Thanks for your reply,

You might want to check with Lycoming to see if they have a video detailing
the overhaul in your particular model.. You can also check in the Aircraft
spruce catalogue to see if they have a video for your model.

Hey folks -
I just fired my freshly overhauled Lycoming O-290-D. It runs great and has
80 lbs of oil pressure. Everything was looking great, and after 10 minutes I
added some power to see how she pulls. All of a sudden, I start getting some
oil mist. I shut it down to see that the oil is pouring out between the
crank and the seal.
I know FULL WELL that I installed the spring that wraps around the inside of
the seal after you stretch it on into place - - why would oil be getting
past this seal (and LOTS of it!!) I guess I need to just pull the seal out
and see what it looks like, but I have never seen this happen before. Have
any of you seen this happen????
Thanks,
Linc
