(1) Inspect the turbocharger oil return line check valve per Beechcraft Service Bulletin No. 2027 to determine if a P/N 101-389011-55 check valve is installed. This valve may be identified by the blue color and the P/N on the valve outlet end fitting.

(i) If a Beech P/N 101-389011-55 check valve is not installed, the airplane may be returned to service without further action.

(ii) If a Beech P/N 101-389011-55 check valve is installed, prior to return to service and within each additional five hours time-in-service until replaced, inspect and clean this valve in accordance with Beech Service Bulletin No. 2027.

(b) Within the next 25 hours time-in-service after the effective date of this AD on airplanes on which a Beech P/N 101-389011-55 check valve is installed, modify this part to, or replace it with, a Beech P/N 101-389011-69 check valve in accordance with Beech Service Bulletin No. 2027.
