I have #1460, 70 hrs.
Currently completely stripped to investigate low oil pressure when warm. Can
clearly see where the internal leakage has been.
New bigger through bolts from Camit are being fitted with great care on the s
ealing we hope to have it performing well before long.
Other mods with Camit supplied parts will be published with pictures when we
are finished.

You mean, "*already* had to lap #1 exhaust valve" ?

Guys
Has anyone compiled a list of the owners of the Jabiru 3300 that have made
it to top and overhaul hours.
I would be very interested in a list or database of 3300 engines with 500 o
r more hours by serial number if possible.
Not necessarily individual ser. numbers but according to the following tabl
e -
0 - 960 Solid Lifters
961 - 1683 w/ High leak Hydraulic Lifters1684 - 2538 w/ Slow leak hydrauli
c lifters
2539 - Current
My engine is in the 961 to 1683 Serial numbers and has 214 hrs and running
good. Temps on #5 & 6 cylinders get up to 325 ~ 330 CHT and I have to chang
e throttle settings to get them under 300 deg. I spent many hours re-jetti
ng the carb. and modifing the Ram Air inlets. I am hoping to get many more
hours of Maintenance free time if that is possible.
I suspect the slow leak lifters are causing a lot of engines to come up ver
y short on time for a top overhaul.
I know of at least one that only made it to 107 hrs. The rings were stuck s
olid in the ring grooves on all cylinders=2C valves were carboned up and t
he head to cylinder joints were leaking badly. This engine was run a little
hot on break in but has been under 300 deg. CHT since.
I think we owners of these engines are doing the Beta testing for Jabiru.
I would like to hear some good news about engines that have made it over 50
0 to 600 hrs with no problems.
Are the engines in Jabiru Aircraft having the same problems we are having o
n other experimentals??
Is there a site where we could post hours and S. N.'s for comparison??

Jabiru 3300 with solid lifters (0-960) and 880 hours on it. Cruse at
about 2800rpm with CHT=99s < 280 and EGT=99s between 1300
and 1350.
