|
How engine starts? |
- battery powers starter - starter turns fly wheel - fly wheel turns crnkshaft - crankshaft moves pistons - mags start sparking cylinders - engine powers mags continues cycle |
|
4 cycles in engine? |
Intake - takes in air fuel mixture
Compression - piston moves up compress fuel air mixture
power - spark plugs fire it up explodes pushes piston back down
Exhaust - piston moves back up exhaust valve opens pushing it back out. |
|
How many spark plugs? |
2 per cylinder
- provides greater performance - and redundancy - one from each magneto |
|
Electrical system? |
28 volt system
- Battery 24 volt for starting the engine and as a back up if alt fails but only about 30 min
- Alternator is 70 amp 28 volt and belt driven by engine - Voltage regulator had built in over voltage relay that protects system from too much voltage it also regulates changing voltage due to change in the engine rpm
- circuit breakers protects systems from shorts and potential electrical fires
- digital ammeter indicates the amount of electrical load being provided to the system by the alternator

oil ? |
Max - 8 quarts min - 2 quarts transpac - 6 quarts |
|
Vacuum system? |
- operates gyro driven instruments headinding indicator and attitude indicator - dry type pump no need for air and oil separator - shear drive keeps protects pump from damage, if drive shears instruments become inop - vacumm gauge between 4.8 and 5.2 low indication dirty filter, zero indication a sheared drive - vacumm regulator is provided to protect gyros

|
pitot static? |
provides pitot and static pressure to air speed indicator
- static pressure to altimeter, and vsi
- alt static source uses cabin pressure vents and sorm window closed but heater and defroster must be on . |
|
Landing gear? |
- the struts air oil type - steerable threw 30 degrees - parking brake is incorporated in the master cylinder - fixed trycycle gear
