    Subject: Re: M14P Missing Oil & Hydraulic Lock
    Hit delete now..... Ok, I warned you. I've had the kimbal oil shut off valve and the oil sump drain pump for over 350 hours on my M14P. I love it, period, end of story. Used properly, there is zero chance of a hydraulic lock. It has the starter interupt if the valve is closed. and if you remove all the oil from your engine after shutting off the oil valve, there is no oil to drain into the Cyl, therefore no lock. Now, I've heard of danger of the starter interupt not working while the valve is closed and electrically, don't see how that will happen. But I'll grant you it might be possibility. However, when ever I start an engine I look for oil pressure once the engine is running, no pressure I immediately shut down the engine. We do this for cessnas, pipers, etc, why is this any different. I guess you could "accidently" shut the oil valve in flight, but then again if you did that, you really shouldn't be flying. The only real issue I see with the system is the half second it takes to get oil pressure into the engine and that could be fixed with a pre-oiler. But I've not seen (even in winter) it take more than a second to get oil pressure, so while I might do a pre-oiler in the future, it is not a priority. The nice thing the system does (besides preventing Hydraulic Lock, is prevent oil from coming out the intake drains and the exhaust onto the hanger floor or ramp. Your mileage may varry, void where prohibited. Dabear

    1) Oil migration may reduce or go away during winter. 2) Try changing your oil, and to something heavier? 3) When I installed Bill Blackwells oil filter kit my oil migration reduced significantly. 4) If you have an insurance policy from www.airpowerinsurance.com it may help also..., heck its worth checking at least.
