AD: Lycoming Engines Reciprocating Engines

AD NUMBER: 2012-03-07

PRODUCT: Certain Lycoming Engines Reciprocating Engines
SUBJECT: Airworthiness Directive 2012-03-07
ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by a report of a ‘‘machined-from-billet' HA-6 carburetor having a loose mixture control sleeve that rotated in the carburetor body causing restriction of fuel and power loss. This AD requires removing certain ‘‘machined-from-billet' Volare LLC (formerly Precision Airmotive Corporation, formerly Facet Aerospace Products Company, formerly Marvel-Schebler (BorgWarner)) HA-6 carburetors, inspecting for a loose mixture control sleeve or for a sleeve that may become loose, repairing the carburetor, or replacing the carburetor with one eligible for installation. The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent engine in-flight shutdown, power loss, and reduced control of the airplane.

DATES: This AD is effective March 27, 2012
