 Information about fuels and lubricants

Fuel: Automobile fuel, unleaded premium 92 Octane (RON) minimum.
Fuel pressure: 2.2 psi - 3.0 psi nominal, 4.3 psi Max. (0.15 - 0.2 bar nominal 0.3 bar max.)
Oil type: Multi-grade oils SAE15W-50. Use only brand-name oils for automobile engines. 
Oil volume: 4.2 quarts (4 Liters) This will vary based on the oil line layout and oil cooler size used. Oil level is between * and 2/3 of oil tank after run up.
Oil consumption: 1/10th quart per hour, Max. (0.1 L/h)
Oil pressure: 58 psi (4 bar) Max.
29 psi (2 bar) Min. @ 5000 rpm
17 psi (1.2 bar) Min. @ idle rpm
Oil temperature:
(readings off of the feed line into engine):
Min. 122 Deg. F (50 Deg. C)
Max. 212 Deg. F (100 Deg. C)
Optimum oil temperature range: 140 - 194 F. (60 - 90 C)
CAUTION!
  • Don't use any aircraft engine oils and additives.
  • You must install the oil cooler in the return line to the oil tank.

 Cooling system

  • Free air cooling.
  • For the engines with full-cowled engine installation, ducting is required to properly channel cooling air to the cylinders.

 Cylinder head temperature

  • Max. permissible cylinder head temperature (measured on the hottest cylinder): 446 Deg. F (230 Deg. C)

 Propeller drive-reduction gear

  • Reduction ratio: crankshaft to propshaft=2.58:1
  • Torsional shock absorption is based on progressive cushioning from an axial spring loaded hub with dogs.

 Propeller mass moment of inertia

  • The maximum permissible propeller mass moment of inertia: 3000 kg cm2 (ft/lbs)
