FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY. I WILL NOT BE HELD LIABLE IF YOU WATCH THIS VIDEO, CHANGE YOUR OWN OIL, AND KILL YOURSELF.
*NEVER UNRAVEL SAFETY WIRE, INSTALL WIRE AFTER OIL FILTER*
This video shows a typical oil change on a Continental O-200A installed in a Cessna 150G aircraft.
Parts List from Aircraft Spruce:
1. ECON SAFETY WIRE TWISTER 9"
2. SAFETY WIRE .032
3. TEMPEST AA472 OIL FILTER TORQUE WRENCH
4. DOW CORNING DC-4 COMPOUND
5. CHAMPION CH48108-1 OIL FILTER
6. AEROSHELL 100W OIL
OTHER ITEMS:
1. Sharpie Marker
2. Flexi Funnel
SOME OBSERVATIONS:
1. Don't wear sandals when you are working on your plane! ;)
2. Install the safety wire AFTER installing the oil filter, this ensures you are able to apply the proper number of twist at the correct length without having to unravel the twist which compromises the strength of the wire
3. Dispose of used oil properly
[DATE]. Tach time: XXX.X HRS. Drained oil, removed oil filter, replaced filter with Champion CH48108-1, safety-wired filter, added 5 quarts of Aeroshell 100W oil & 12oz AvBlend additive, ran and leak-checked engine in accordance with Cessna maintenance manual. Oil sample taken and sent to lab for analysis. [OWNER NAME], Owner, [Certificate number]

Great video! Thanks for sharing! Congrats from Portugal

Portugal rocks! Thank you.

Thanks for sharing that video.

The only thing I do differently is fill the oil filter with fresh oil before I put it on. It will soak up the oil and not spill a drop. You get oil pressure just a little bit faster that way. Also, oil works really well to lubricate that O-ring on the filter too.

i like that idea, thanks!

I use the same tools everyday. The flexifunnel is great to use. I use a longer one. I even use the champion torque wrench. I wish I would have brought it early on in my career. It is such a time saver. You forgot to include the part where you get pricked by the safety wire. Also I never had an oil filter fail on me. I don't even know why they make us safety it. I suppose they think it's going to rotate off the engine once it's torqued. Thanks for the video.

Why drain some oil before taking a sample? Don't you want to see what has settled to the bottom of the sump?

@dannyfivefifty 3 года назад

Do you have an oil screen underneath the quick drain??

@reisender8889 2 года назад

Need to show how the oil drain on bottom works? Is it a valve? What size nut is it?

@salmanal-harethey1486 5 лет назад

To properly collect an oil sample: Collect 1/3 ar the beginning of the draining and then 1/3 in the middle process and finally 1/3 when the oil start to slow.

@FlyingWildAZ 5 лет назад

Why do you use that process? That captures sediment.

Great video Tim. I am a new C150 owner in las vegas. Where are you based? Maybe we could meet sometime. Hoping to visit a lot of desert airfields soon. like your videos.

@FlyingWildAZ 6 лет назад

I am out of KDVT, Deer Valley, Phoenix. Look me up if you head this way. I have been out to Las Vegas a few times, usually going into Henderson.

@BrianOgilvie79 6 лет назад

speaking of oil..do you have oil cooling problems when flying during hot summer days? somebody asked me about that. i learned to fly on east coast..no such issues to be heard of

@FlyingWildAZ 6 лет назад

Yes oil cooling in the Summer in Phoenix is a real problem due to the design of the O-200 and the location of the oil filter in an area of stagnant non-circulating air, if the outside temp is 100F you will need to climb quickly to 80F or you will redline your oil. A "brute force" climb will often just aggravate the problem, so I will often feel the air out for thermals and climb up to cooler air quickly and more efficiently that way. I am looking at possible solutions such as the Airwolf heat sink for the oil filter. Even with the heat sink you will need to engineer a way to circulate air over the sink.

Not an aircraft owner, though aerospace engineer and car hobbyist. The used oil looks quite dark, compared to my 2002 Chrysler 3.8L engine w/ 275K miles, which I change every 7K miles. Is that due to the hotter temperatures in the air-cooled engine, or perhaps higher compression and thus more blow-by (like a diesel)? I expect you change oil much more often in an airplane. It appears you use silicone grease on the oil filter gasket, whereas most car owners just coat w/ fresh engine oil. Perhaps that gasket is silicone rubber. I wonder if Alaska Bush Pilots are similarly fastidious, especially working in remote locations where they must improvise and in harsh climates.

@charlesbrewer6552 3 года назад

Used aircraft oil is dirtier than modern car engines because of the leaded fuel. As I understand it 100 low lead avgas has about 8 x more lead in it than old leaded auto fuel. A lot of carbon and sludge is held in suspension in the oil, hence the need of frequent oil changes. Aircraft engines are also prone to deposit build up inside the heads and on the valves because of the fuel used. Un-leaded auto fuel burns a lot cleaner. On my aircraft I use engine oil on the filter O-ring, that is what my manual tells me to do.

@eriksteel6433 3 года назад

When you install the oil filter adaptor what is done with the old oil screen?

@datanetcomputacion3842 Год назад

Tengo la misma duda .. encontraste la respuesta ?

@chrisdiederichs397 4 года назад

What was the diameter of the oil rubber hose you used?

@josefastboats5874 3 года назад

I would also like to know

@readmore3634 6 лет назад

should you warm the engine oil up a little first?

@FlyingWildAZ 6 лет назад

yes, I may have neglected to mention that the plane was flown about 30 minutes before the video. This is actually more important for a good oil sample than just the oil change itself

@datanetcomputacion3842 Год назад

Hello you dont clean tos, Screen Assembly, Oil?

@FlyingWildAZ Год назад

When the O-200 is upgraded by STC to an oil filter adapter (original engine had no oil filter), the original screen assembly is removed from the engine and thus no requirement to clean.

@memnok919 6 лет назад

Nit picking but i was taught to never unravel safety wire, measure up to the hole then thread. Could cause failure.

@FlyingWildAZ 6 лет назад

Thank you, Great observation. The proper procedure should have been to install the safety wire AFTER the oil filter had been mounted. This would ensure the proper number of twist at the correct length without unraveling the twist. Appreciate the comment:)

@memnok919 6 лет назад

No problem, like I said minor thing. But in aviation..... Lol

@jeffpelton3211 6 лет назад

The proper procedure is hook the safety wire at the anchor, let plenty hanging in excess, then use the safety wire priers or hand twist. AC 43.13. Never untwist and reuse safety wire.
