Unsafe Condition

Excessive wear of the propeller shaft oil seal rings may cause propeller oil leaks, leading to potential failure of the propeller system.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Required Actions

Conduct propeller oil leakdown inspections per Lycoming Service Bulletin No. 290 until Lycoming P/N 67722 oil seal rings are installed. Install P/N 67722 seal rings in the reduction gear assembly and identify them with an 'M' stamp next to the reduction gear serial number.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Compliance Time

Within 10 hours' time in service after the effective date; 25 hours' time in service after the first inspection; 25 hours' time in service after the second inspection; and every 100 hours' time in service thereafter.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Affected Aircraft

Lycoming Engines: GO, IGO, GSO, and IGSO series models listed in Service Bulletin No. 290 when installed in twin-engine aircraft with full feathering Hartzell propellers. Specific models and serial ranges include GO-435, GO-580-B, GO-480-F, GO-480-D, GSO-480, GO-480-C/-G, IGSO-480, IGO-540, IGSO-540, and others as detailed in the AD.
