    SERVICE BULLETIN SB18-03


    Supersedes M74-16
    Compliance Will Enhance Safety T E CH N IC AL PO RT IO NS
    FAA APPROVED
    SUBJECT: Valve Spring Identification
    PURPOSE: To ensure correct identification and usage of valve springs.
    COMPLIANCE: At the next maintenance requiring complete disassembly of the engine, 
    no later than published TBO.
    MODELS
    AFFECTED: All Continental Motors, Inc. (CMI) A65, C75, C85, C90, C125, C145, E165,
    E185 model aviation gasoline (AvGas) engines

    I. GENERAL INFORMATION
    This Service Document summarizes and consolidates the valve spring combination changes
    presented in previous releases.
    CMI recommends that all valve springs retain color-coded stripe identification (see Figure 1 and
    Table 1). All valve springs in stockrooms should be color striped. Where necessary, reapply the
    Dykem® color stripe after the disassembly from an engine and thorough cleaning.
    NOTE: Never apply enamel paint to color-code springs.
    In order to ensure proper marking, valve springs on hand should be checked against the spring
    identification and test data shown in Table 1. The stripe should be approximately 1/4" wide and
    should touch only the outside of each coil.
    NOTE: Carefully apply the stripe to ensure it is clearly visible. Do
    not apply striping in excess to cause runs or drips.
