Aircraft ownership can be a real pain sometimes.
Anyway My pa-32-Six that I have had for almost 3 weeks was all of a sudden showing an increase in oil consumption.Went from a quart-8hrs to a quart-6hrs. Seems to be Blowing it out the breather vent on the belly. No signs in the exhaust. So the local Mech and I checked the Compression Sure enough low on NUMBER 3.
So my question 1050hrs on a factory reman. I am thinking I will just do all six!
I am hoping I can make close to another 1000hrs with 6 new cylinders?
What would you do????
I have 33 hrs in it since the 1st of June and the Oil consumption has been just what the prev. owner said. until now.
