Ric,
When I was speaking of the 'inside' lubrication, i meant the lubrication which can't be performed by means of squirting oil from the top. I will now stick to your 5 to 10 hours rule regarding the impulse coupling accessed through the spring loaded cap. As for the lubrication (and perhaps other maintenance work) inside the magneto, I will have someone else do it for me as suggested by Michael. Michael, According to the current service schedule (which I received from the former owner), the magneto needs to undergo a major inspenction every 250 hours of engine time or 24 months (whichever comes first). This overhaul must by definition be performed by an authorised mechanic, as it requires issuing a kind of certificate called FORM 1 (under EASA regulations). So that rather settles the matter. I thank you both for your attention Regards Jarek śr., 24 paź 2018 o 16:14 Michael Stockhill <sto...@gmail.com> napisał(a): > Jarek, > > I have just used engine oil for the last 15 years. > > One observation.
