    Subject: Hydraulic lock?
    From: "mnorman" <mark@albanyproperty.com.au>
    Hi All, I think I may have suffered the dreaded hydraulic lock! My Nanchang had sat idle for about 4 or 5 months. Before attempting to start it I pulled the lower plugs (front ones only), got a fair bit of oil out and pulled through about 12 to 15 blades. When I tried to start her the prop turned about a half dozen times with a bit of smoke and a bang as it started to fire then abruptly stopped. Checked the prop and it was locked solid. Fearing the worst I pulled all the front plugs and intake drains but I was surprised that no oil came out. Also the prop was still locked in position, I had assumed once the plugs were out the lock would release. Can anyone tell me, does this sound like hydraulic lock? How come no oil came out after and why is it still locked up with the plugs out? Also if it is a hydraulic lock is the motor repairable or throw it away? Thanks for any ideas or info.

    Subject: Hydraulic lock?
    I would be almost certain that it is locked because a connecting rod bent; the piston moved further up the cylinder and the oil control ring jumped out, and it is now preventing the piston going back down the cylinder. Sorry, so not good news. But, the motor is repairable, but should be very carefully checked in case there has been a major strain on some component.

    Unfortunately, I think a number of people would remove the cylinder in question, and confirm that what I have suggested is correct; remove a couple of other cylinders which will give you access to the crankcase; remove the bent rod, which you can do unless it is the master rod; replace the rod and, probably, piston and reassemble. My personal view is that a hydraulic lock imposes quite significant strains on the crankshaft and possibly crankcase, and I personally would want to see the crankshaft and case being removed; x-rayed/crack tested; check that it is completely "true" it is of course only pressed together; carefully check that none of the other cylinders were affected, and then, very importantly, make sure that the new piston and connecting rod weigh within half a gram of the others.

    The longer you leave the engine, the greater amount of oil is likely to migrate down from the tank. Also, I noted that he only pulled one lot of plugs; you can get oil in the intake tubes (but more likely with a tail =93 wheel aircraft); you can have oil stuck in the bottom of the inverted piston etc. After that length of time, I would turn it through at least 50/60 blades with the plugs removed. Also, it is a very good practice to make a note of the oil level on shutting down, and leave that in the aircraft. When you come back, you will then know how much oil has gone into the engine!

    Thanks for all the info Richard, its much appreciated. Is there an easy way to tell which piston is the problem? Also how do you think it would compare price wise between doing the work you have suggested and replacing the engine. Anyone know the going price for a replacement HS-6A?

    Typically not a master rod. But definitely could be a bent link rod in probably #5 or #6 cylinder. If the link rod is bent, it will jam up against the sleeve of the cylinder.

    Many CJ owners do not install intake drain kits on the Housai engines. Mos t =0Alikely because the Housai engine does not have intake plugs on the #4, 5 and 6 =0Acylinders as does the M14 engine.

    As well as what Richard said. The 5th ring counting from the top of the pist on, with the connecting rod bent, on down stroke slipped out of the neck of t he cylinder.

    The YAK maintenance manual calls for this if the engine sits idle for thirty days. "Drive out the intake plugs and spark plugs".

    Well guys, We parked our DC3 last October and carefully installed drip pans. In March when it was time to get her going again, we removed all the bottom plugs pulled her through then started it up without the bottom plugs installed. Ran funny and shot a lot of oil across the ramp, but no hydro-lock. I learned this trick from some =9DOld Timers=9D (as I am approaching 70 myself, that means anyone who is older than me!)

    Subject: Re: Hydraulic lock?
    Hi Dennis; The Huosai does indeed have intake drain plugs on 4, 5 & 6. These are identical to the ones on the EARLY M14P with one major exception. The plug bosses on the Huosai intake pipes are welded directly to the pipe with no re-inforcing doubler as you will find on the M14P. As a result the addition of a drain system introduces the possibility of cracking around the boss unless the pipes are modified to the same standard as the M14P. Cheers; Walt From: A. Dennis Savarese Sent: Friday, April 19, 2013 4:54 AM Subject: Re: Yak-List: Re: Hydraulic lock? Many CJ owners do not install intake drain kits on the Housai engines. Most likely because the Housai engine does not have intake plugs on the #4,5 and 6 cylinders as does the M14 engine. Oil does collect in the intake tubes and it does thicken while it lays in the intake tubes. If a glob of oil gets sucked into the cylinder, it could be enough oil to cause the dreaded hydraulic lock and also cause a link (connecting) rod to bend. Therefore, one of the ways to help prevent hydraulic lock, besides pulling the plugs and pulling through, is to install an intake drain kit. Leave the intake drain kit open when the aircraft is parked. During the preflight prep, with the intake drain open, pump a few shots of prime and watch for the fuel to eventually run CLEAR out of the intake drain. This helps flush the oil from the intake tubes. Then pull the blades with the intake drain open. Also, because the airplane sits at a slightly nose high attitude on the ground, it is always recommended to pull the rear spark plugs because the oil typically rests at the rear of the cylinder due to the nose high attitude. Most importantly, pull the rear plugs from 4, 5, and 6. Even #7 can't hurt.

    The M-14 Engine has slightly different "stroke" lengths, and I would guess so would the Housai. You cannot rely on that method all the time. Just sayin.

    Everyone else has responded to this already, so there is not much more to be said...... except: One thing I have discovered with my YAK-50 that DOES have the intake drain kit installed, is that when the weather is cold, the oil does not tend to just run right out of the intake drains. This results in the strong possibility of oil remaining in the intake tubes and being gulped right into the engine on start, which apparently is what happened to this poor gent. And yes, I am running Phillips 25W-60W Radial Engine Oil. So to those with intake drain kits installed, take note if you choose. I first prime the living daylights out of my engine and DO NOT (!!!) pull it through AT ALL!!! I just sit there watching the intake drain itself. What SHOULD happen is that raw fuel comes streaming out of the drain. If it does NOT do that, then "YO" the oil in the drain tube kit itself is backed up and you might still have a lot of oil (and now fuel too!) in the lower intake tubes themselves. This is a strong DANGER DANGER indication! At this point, I prime it still more and AGAIN watch the drain. If STILL nothing happens, I pull the front and rear plugs, and then start pre-heating the whole darn engine no matter what it takes to accomplish that. STILL never turning the prop at all. Eventually all the oil and fuel will come streaming out the intake drain. THEN and only THEN is when I will consider pulling the prop through. If you don't have the intake drain kit installed, you are looking at pulling the cowl and the plugs and pretty much doing the same thing. The YAK-50 being a tail-dragger is especially prone to this happening. Point being, even with the intake drain kit installed, you still can't take it for granted that it worked as advertised.

    Subject: Re: Hydraulic lock?
    From: Rico Jaeger <rijaeger@wausau.k12.wi.us>
    As usual, Mark - you are right on the bullseye here. What you described is exactly what happened to me a couple weeks ago when I started the Yak for the 1st time in months. It was chilly out and I had left the intake drain open the entire time she sat. The only time anything moved through the chilled drain tube was when I would cycle the drain valve - then a single globule of oil would exit after each opening - guessing the slight vacuum on the clogged line caused that. About 15 minutes after priming - with the valve still open - the fuel worked it's way through the line and opened things up - I guess much like an oil dilution system would do. I have MUCH to learn about these aircraft / engines. But if you experts have taught me anything, it's be careful to the point of PARANOIA w/ start up. Thank you for that. I'd rather take the time & effort and be mildly inconvenienced any day over being grounded w/ expensive and lengthy repairs due to complacency.

I first prime the living daylights out of my engine and DO NOT (!!!) pull it through AT ALL!!! I just sit there watching the intake drain itself. What SHOULD happen is that raw fuel comes streaming out of the drain. If it does NOT do that, then "YO" the oil in the drain tube kit itself is backed up and you might still have a lot of oil (and now fuel too!) in the lower intake tubes themselves. This is a strong DANGER DANGER indication! > > At this point, I prime it still more and AGAIN watch the drain.

"Drive out the intake plugs and spark plugs". They also recommend that if the engine sits longer than five days to pull blades periodically to clear any accumulated oil. > Doc > > > Sent from my iPad > > On Apr 19, 2013, at 7:04 AM, "gord" <gord@thedampub.ca> wrote: > > > > Am I to understand that it is advisable to do this procedure even if intake drains have been installed? > > > > Thanks Richard > > > > Gordon Price > > > > Canada > > > > > ________________________________ > > > From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Richard Goode > Sent: April-19-13 7:00 AM > To: yak-list@matronics.com > Subject: RE: Yak-List: Re: Hydraulic lock? > > > > The longer you leave the engine, the greater amount of oil is likely to migrate down from the tank. Also, I noted that he only pulled one lot of plugs; you can get oil in the intake tubes (but more likely with a tail wheel aircraft); you can have oil stuck in the bottom of the inverted piston etc. After that length of time, I would turn it through at least 50/60 blades with the plugs removed. Also, it is a very good practice to make a note of the oil level on shutting down, and leave that in the aircraft. When you come back, you will then know how much oil has gone into the engine! > > > > Richard Goode > > > > Rhodds Farm > > Lyonshall > > Hereford > > HR5 3LW > > United Kingdom > > Tel: +94 (0) 81 241 5137 (Sri Lanka) > > Tel: +44 (0) 1544 340120 > > Fax: +44 (0) 1544 340129 > > www.russianaeros.com > > Im currently in Sri Lanka but this Mail is working,and my local phone is +94 779 132 160. > > > > From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of andrew.park > Sent: Friday, April 19, 2013 3:40 PM > To: Yak > Subject: Re: Yak-List: Re: Hydraulic lock? > > > > Richard, do you think this problem has been caused by the lack of use for 4-5 months or is this just a coincedence.
