All, while at Oshkosh I had a conversation with the slick mag guys. Joe warned
me of a service bulletin (Slick SB1-98, Lycoming SB 537) which turned into an
AD that should apply to our engines IO540-D4A5 but for some reason does not explicitly
list our model. Instead they make reference to a list of models and
engines with fifth order balancers which the last "5" in our suffix refers to.
The service bulletin calls for mandatory 250 hour inspections of impulse couplings,
ultimately advising replacement of impulse coupled mags with retard breakers
and slick start.
So to the brain trust - what is your interpretation of this SB (a short Google
search will find it)? I wonder why they continue to offer impulse coupled mags
on new IO540-XXX5 engines. When I talked to Lycoming they said, "yup it looks
like this applies to your engine". - Jason

Amy and I (Peter) had a blast, we met lots of RV-10 builders and saw a
few on the flightline as well. it is a great stimulance to make sure
that I work every free moment on my plane.

Yes, only impulse mags if it applies at all, I am still very curious why the D4A5
would not have been listed if it applied. At the same time I don't want an
omission on their part to leave us with the same real issue even if the paperwork
didn't follow. - Jason

Thanks. I just moved and my network access is limited. I can get the 10 ready
for first flight or wire the new house.
Fortunately for me, the engines that Vans sell all have a retard mag.

The way the Lycoming and Slick service bulletins are written at this time,
they do not apply to the C4B5 or D4A5 engines. Given that those engines
were extensively used on the Aztec and Comanche aircraft, if the bulletin
was to apply to them, it would state that. Not saying you shouldn't keep an
eye on the impulse coupling, but the SB names all affected aircraft. Since
the engines normally used in the -10 don't come from any of those aircraft,
probably does not apply.
Of course many of the donor aircraft didn't have problems with Slick mags
because they were originally certified with Bendix mags (which have some of
their own ADs, but are generally more durable and more rebuildable than
Slicks)
