Maximum oil temperature: 104 °C. A transient oil temperature up to 110 °C is
acceptable for maximum 10 minutes.
Minimum oil temperature for takeoff: 0 °C.
Oil pressure:
-
Minimum: 60 psi. A transient oil pressure down to 40 psi is acceptable for
maximum 20 seconds.
-
Maximum: 135 psi. A transient oil pressure up to 175 psi is acceptable for
maximum 20 seconds.
Normal oil pressure is 100 to 135 psi. Oil pressures under 100 psi are undesirable.
Under emergency conditions, to complete a flight, an oil pressure between 60 and
100 psi is permitted at reduced power level not exceeding 45% torque. Oil
pressures below 60 psi are unsafe and require that either the engine be shut down
or a landing be made as soon as possible using the minimum power required to
sustain flight.
Oil capacity:
-
System total capacity: 12.7 qt (12 liters), oil cooler included,
-
Usable capacity: 6 qt (5.7 liters).
Fuel
Fuel limitations:
-
Two tanks: 150.5 USG (570 liters) each
-
Total fuel: 301 USG (1,140 liters)
-
Usable fuel: 292 USG (1,106 liters)
-
Unusable fuel: 9 USG (34 liters)
-
Maximum fuel imbalance: 15 USG (57 liters)
NOTE
The quantity of usable fuel can be safely utilized during all normal airplane
maneuvers.
CAUTION
The fuel used must contain an anti-ice additive, in accordance with
specification MIL-I-27686 or MIL-I-85470. Additive concentrations (EGME or
DIEGME) shall be between a minimum of 0.06% and a maximum of 0.15% by
Paragraph Fuel in Subsection 8.7.
