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.
