I tend to agree with the incorrect hour meter readings.  My 415C didn't
get
a Hobbs until the 60's and it shows 420 hours since then.  I have put
almost
100 on it in the past 3 months.  It never had a recording tach since new.
I
located one at Oshkosh out of a Tomahawk and maintenance will be run from
that.

Total time is guessed at around 830, but it has had a major and a top in
it's life.  Previous owner flew 2 hours in 8 years.

Time seems to be the biggest factor in overhaul times.  The more it flies,
the less maintenance it needs. (except oil)  Luckily, my cylinders look OK
inside with a bore scope.

I also agree the 1800 hour thing is a farse.  I don't think any
Continental
will make it that long.

Good luck.
