Hi Ulrich,
As long as you have good high oil pressure and are not finding metal in the
oil screen when you change the oil just keep on going. The lower end of
these engines will not give you problems with out low oil pressure or metal
in the screen. Good luck. If you want to be extra careful get into a
spectral engine oil analysis program just to have the comfort that nothing
is going bad.

Dear Coupers,
right now I have a chance to buy a Coupe which seems
to be in excellent condition but the engine has almost
1800 hrs. All 4 cylinders have been replaced during
the last 150 hrs. The seller says the engine runs
fine, uses hardly any oil and has a high oil pressure
indication so there is nothing to worry about.
Now is it advisable to run an engine beyond its TBO
time? And how about the other parts in the engine like
crankshaft, bearings etc.? Do I have a higher risk to
encounter major problems?
I'd be most grateful if anybody has experience on this
subject and could advise me.
Many thanks.
Ulrich 'Rick' Hertig
