| Subject: | Engine plugs to identify |
Guys
In the back of my Lycoming IO-540, near the Oil Filter, there are 2 plugs
that I'm not sure what they are for.
I'm referring to those 2 which have the red female caps in the annexed
photo.
May I have your help to identify them?
Thanks
Carlos

The big one is the mechanical tach drive. They sell caos for that if it leak
s oil. Many planes I see don't have the cap and don't leak.
The small one I would need to see with the cap off. It is possibly an oil pr
essure line port.

The small (lower) one is a male AN6 flared tube fitting, which I intend to p
lug with a AN929 plug.

Thanks or the link.
I would be in the same situation.
They certainly does not seem to have a good payback, if you already have
a mag. I also think about being stranded on a XC flight and looking for
repair or replacement. But itching to spend more $$ on the plane.
do not archive.

An AN6 fitting is not small. They are used for thinks like hoses to the oil
cooler., Have you looked at the plans, FF1 if I remember correctly points
out all the fittings you install. Then check the FF section for oil system
to be sure you have all those fittings identified.

=46rom looking at an overhaul manual, it looks like sometimes that port is u
sed for a spring-and-ball oil cooler bypass, and sometimes for an oil cooler
return. It's too small for that in this case, I think. If you have both of y
our AN8 lines already in for the oil cooler, then this should get capped.
