One very good reason for running the engine at a minimum of 60% for 20
seconds before shutting down is that this will ensure that virtually all the
excess oil inside the engine will be scavenged back to the oil tank, and
this is the time that the oil level should be checked. So, when you return
to next fly the aircraft, having made a note of the oil level, you can see
how much the level has gone down, and by definition, that oil has migrated
down into the engine, or possibly the cylinders!

Hmmm,
That's a very good point. I never considered checking oil immediately after
shutdown, and then subsequently prior to start and compare the
difference.....
I will do that next time.

Richard
Pretty much the same scavenge procedure I have used for at least 50
years starting with the Ranger engine, then the R985, R1340 and now the
Ivchenko engines.
Specific RPM (I use 1400) for specific time (1 minute). Exactly the
same each time allows an accurate assessment of oil consumption. One
minute period also helps reduce shut-down cyl. temp. close to the max.
recommended of 140 deg. C.

Actually Phil, I would think that it may slightly pressurize the check valve, increasing
its limited effectiveness. Just remember the orientation and flow direction
of the valve.
I think I'll give it a try.
