Plug screw 240 234

by Tom Delaney in 912 / 914 Technical Questions 9 years ago

I have a small oil leak around this plug on the bottom of my 150 hour 912 ULS. I have not noticed any oil usage nor streaking of the belly. Any tips on fixing this would be appreciate. Tom

make sure it is actually leaking, and not just residual oil. (Try Rogers athletes foot powder? see his post here:

If it is leaking burp the oil system, remove the plug, (a cup or 2 will drain out) clean it and reinstall with loctite 243. Torque to 26 ftlbs.

I should mention the plug will be very tight, use a high quality 8mm allen socket and an extension pipe. Junky allen key will just spoil your fun.
