I use Phillips with Camguard except during the first 50-100 hours on a new engine, where I leave out the Camguard.

It is for the "76" series engines like the O-320-H2AD that had very different cam and lifters than what your IO-540 has. The Lycoming additive is a version of tricresyl Phospate, or TCP, and is an extreme pressure lubricant. Later replaced by close cousin TPP. > Phillips does not have that additive, and I don't think Camguard does either. Camguard is primarily an anti-corrosive, which is helpful in preventing pitting on the cam. > The Phillips/Camguard combo gives best anti-corrosion protection.

I guess my case is a bit isolated. I do remember adding glass to the lower attach points but I don't remember if I did to the uppers - it is drawn in a bit by the screw but the gopro camera lens might exaggerate it a little. Easy enough to go ahead and pull it off and add some glass as you say below, and check for any exhaust leaks. I did not see any fuel residue around it.

From: "ivankris" Thanks to all for the help, ideas and suggestions you have given me here. I have done the on-line courses for both the Washington Special Flight Rules Area (SFRA) and the NY City SFRA. Now armed with a good knowledge of the rules and the correct charts combined with the experience of having done it once before (15+ years ago) I feel quite confident that we can pull this off without any trouble. The plan is to fly directly to Westchester County (KHPN) for customs and then launch from there to do the Hudson River sight seeing tour. After the tour we will stop in Monmouth Executive (KBLM) for lunch and file an IFR flight plan to go into Gaithersburg (KGAI) where we will stay for a couple of nights and do the Washington tourist thing. Here is a link to SkyVectors.com showing my routing. http://skyvector.com/?ll=40.921260992712455,-78.63061523802082&chart=301&zoom=7&plan=A.CY.CYKF:V.K6.BUF:V.K6.CFB:F.K6.GAYEL:F.K6.VALRE:A.K6.KHPN:V.K6.COL:A.K6.KBLM:A.K6.KGAI:V.K6.HGR:V.K6.TON:V.K6.JHW:A.CY.CYKF -------- Ivan Kristensen. www.ivankristensen.com Builder # 40838 Flying (430hrs.)
