Lycoming 1E10

Airworthiness Directive Schedule
Lycoming AEIO-360, HIO-360, IO-360 and LIO-360 Series Engines

17 December 2020
Notes: 1. This AD schedule is applicable to Lycoming AEIO-360, HIO-360, IO-360 and LIO-
360 series engines manufactured under FAA Type Certificate Number 1E10.
2. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is the National Airworthiness Authority
(NAA) responsible for the issue of State of Design Airworthiness Directives (ADs)
for theseengines. State of Design ADs can be obtained directly from the FAA
website at
http://rgl.faa.gov/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library/rgAD.nsf/MainFrame?OpenFra
meSet
3. Where a NZ AD is based on a foreign AD, compliance may be shown with either the
NZ AD or the equivalent State of Design AD, because they will have essentially the
same requirements i.e. the logbook will need to list all the NZ ADs, but the CAA will
accept compliance with the equivalent State of Design AD as a means of
compliance with the NZ AD. (The same as happens now for an imported aircraft.)
4. Manufacturer service information referenced in Airworthiness Directives listed in this
schedule may be at a later approved revision. Service information at later approved
revisions can be used to accomplish the requirements of these Airworthiness
Directives.
5. The date above indicates the amendment date of this schedule.
6. New or amended ADs are shown with an asterisk *

Note: Blank spaces indicate unknown data. Where the engine S/N is blank in this
table, it is either unknown or the crankshaft may not be installed in an engine.
Requirement: To prevent crankshaft failure due to cracking, which could result in an inflight engine
failure and possible forced landing, accomplish the following:
a) Determine if this AD applies, as follows:
1. Determine if any repair was conducted on the engine that required crankshaft
removal during the February 1, 1995, to December 31, 1997, time frame; if the engine
was not disassembled for crankshaft removal and repair in this time frame, no further
action is required.
2. If the engine and crankshaft was repaired during this time frame, determine from
the maintenance records (engine log book), and Table 1 of this AD if the crankshaft
was repaired by Nelson Balancing Service, Repair Station Certificate No. NB7R820J,
Bedford, Massachusetts, USA. The maintenance records should contain the Return
to Service (Yellow) tag for the crankshaft that will identify the company performing the

repair. Also the work order number contained in Table 1 of this AD was etched on the
crankshaft propeller flange, adjacent to the closest connecting rod journal. Because
some etched numbers will be difficult to see, if necessary, use a 10X magnifying
glass with an appropriate light source to view the work order number. In addition, the
propeller spinner, if installed, will have to be removed in order to see this number.
3. If it cannot be determined who repaired the crankshaft, compliance with this AD is
required.
4. If the engine and crankshaft were not repaired during the time frame specified in a)
1, or if it is determined that the crankshaft was not repaired by Nelson Balancing
Service, no further action is required.
b) Accomplish the following:
1. Perform a visual inspection as defined in paragraph b) 2 of this AD, magnetic
particle inspection, and a dimensional check of the crankshaft journals, or remove
from service affected crankshafts and replace with serviceable parts.
2. For the purpose of this AD, a visual inspection of the crankshaft is defined as the
inspection of all surfaces of the crankshaft for cracks which include heat check
cracking of the nitrided bearing surfaces, cracking in the main or aft fillet of the main
bearing journal and crankpin journal, including checking the bearing surfaces for
scoring, galling, corrosion, or pitting.
Note: Further guidance on all inspection and acceptance criteria is contained in
applicable Overhaul or Maintenance Manuals.
3. Replace any crankshaft that fails the visual inspection, magnetic particle
inspection, or the dimensional check with a serviceable crankshaft, unless the
crankshaft can be reworked to bring it in compliance with:
i) All the overhaul requirements of the appropriate Overhaul/Maintenance Manuals;
or
ii) All of the approved requirements for any repair station which currently has
approval for limits other than those in the appropriate Overhaul/Maintenance
Manuals.
4. For the purpose of this AD, a serviceable crankshaft is one which meets the
requirements of paragraph b) 3 i) or b) 3) ii) of this AD.
Compliance: By 31 October 1998

DCA/LYC/204B FAA AD 2004-10-14 Propeller Strike – Crankshaft Gear Inspection

Applicability: All direct drive piston engines except O-145, O-320-H, O-360-E, LO-360-E, TO-360-
E, LTO-360-E,and TIO-541 series.
Note 1: DCA/LYC/204B revised to include note 3 and clarify note 2 with regard to
requirements for certifying release-to-service after maintenance.
Requirement: To prevent loosening or failure of the crankshaft gear retaining bolt as result of a
propeller strike, which may cause sudden engine failure, accomplish the following:
Inspect the crankshaft counter-bored recess, the alignment dowel, the bolt hole
threads and the crankshaft gear for wear galling corrosion and fretting per steps 1
through 5 of Lycoming MSB No.475C. Repair if Necessary per MSB 475C.
Remove the existing gear retaining bolt and lockplate from service and install a new
bolt and lockplate per steps 6 and 7 of MSB No.475C.
Do not reinstall any gear retaining bolt and lockplate that were removed in
accordance with this AD.
Note 2: This AD mandates a particular inspection of one of the components of Lycoming
engines that was found to be necessary by the United States FAA. Inspection by AD
was required because the component was not adequately covered by the existing
inspection requirements. As such this AD is additional to and not in lieu of the
inspections required in the event of a prop strike.
The manufacturer’s instructions for continued airworthiness include SB 533A which
relates to maintenance which may be required in the event of a prop strike. The CAA
strongly recommends compliance with Lycoming Mandatory SB 533A.
Compliance: Compliance with this AD is required before further flight if the engine has experienced
a propeller strike.
Note 3: Compliance with this AD may be accomplished by adding the AD requirement to the
aircraft AD logbook as a repetitive inspection, interval “as required”.
Note 4: For the purposes of this AD a propeller strike is defined as follows:
1. Any incident, whether or not the engine is operating, that requires repair to the
propeller other than minor dressing of the blades.
2. Any incident during engine operation in which the propeller impacts a solid
object that causes a drop in RPM and also requires structural repair of the propeller
(incidents requiring only paint touch-up are not included). This is not restricted to
propeller strikes against the ground.
3. A sudden RPM drop while impacting water, tall grass, or similar yielding
medium, where propeller damage is not normally incurred.
4. The preceding definitions include situations where an aircraft is stationary and
the landing gear collapses causing one or more blades to be substantially bent, or
where a hanger door (or other object) strikes the propeller blade. These cases should
be handled as sudden stoppages because of potentially severe side loading on the
crankshaft flange, front bearing, and seal in the absence of oil pressure.
