    Subject: M14P Overhaul TBO
    From: "ZUDSJ" <waferflex@gmail.com>
    Hi I am new to this forum and a new Yak 52 owner in South Africa. I wanted to find out what the TBO is for the M14P in other countries as I believe that with the kind of flying we do (post military) and the kind of maintenance we do surely these engines can take more than 500 hours before complete overhaul? I am aware that this topic has probably been debated to death but really keen on hearing from other Yak owners in other countries. Many thanks Jason-South Africa Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=438473#438473

    The official factory TBO is 750 hours before first overhaul, but 500 hours for the M 14 PF. Then the TBO is 500 hours. To the best of my knowledge this must be observed in all European countries, although some will give a 10% extension "on condition". In other countries with a more liberal approach, the engines can operate "on condition", and I know of a number that are working fine at 1500 hours. Indeed the same basic engine is used to power generating sets in Siberian oilfields, and they expect to get 20,000 hours, but of course operating continuously with very few start-ups and at about 55/60% power.

    Subject: M14P Overhaul TBO
    Some comments to add. Of course your mileage may vary from engine to engine, but mine lost the first mag around 600 hours due to an internal gear failure. It locked up and sheared the coupling. Replaced it, and 100 hours later, the other mag quit dead due to a bad coil. I found it interesting that both mags quit within 100 hours of each other. Other than that, at 800+ hours, I have lost the compressor once, and have had to repair exhaust valves on two cylinders from leading accumulation on the exhaust valve. That happened very early on the engine and I was running it at low RPM and low power settings for cross countries. I since added ... wait for it... wait for it... *MARVEL MYSTERY OIL* to the fuel and started running the engine much harder and all the leading problems just went away. Lost an oil screen and course fuel screen, oil pressure and fuel pressure transducer, and two primer hoses. They seem to go bad constantly, no idea why really. Possibly I am over-pressurizing them when priming? Don't know. Bottom line, I believe having your mags rebuilt after about 500 hours or so might not be a bad idea? Not sure, but I don't like to lose mags in flight. Of course, that's why there are TWO! :-) Mark -----Original Message----- From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Richard Goode Sent: Wednesday, February 18, 2015 9:24 AM Subject: RE: Yak-List: M14P Overhaul TBO --> <richard.goode@russianaeros.com> The official factory TBO is 750 hours before first overhaul, but 500 hours for the M 14 PF.
