How To Properly Break-In An Engine


Kristoffer

Recommended Posts

@Kristoffer that is a great introduction to Continental tech people.  They are great to work with...

My Buddy Cris Gleason helped me with communications with the Continental people. He knew them pretty well after upgrading to a 310hp IO550for his Eagle... I just followed Cris’ lead... :)

It is nice to meet Chuck Cook. I’ll look to find him over on that BT thingy...

Which engines do you have in your bird?  Is that a pair of TNIO550s?

It is interesting to hear the last comment regarding cooling the turbos... Does Chuck have a preferred method of cooling or not re-heating turbos on Continental engines?

Thanks for sharing the video.

Best regards,

Everyone at Continental is fantastic! 

I have IO470's Chuck was just being sarcastic when he made his turbos crack ;) 

If you have trouble reaching Chuck let me know and I will get some answers for you.
