8-32. INSTALLATION OF AIR FILTER. (Refer to Figure 8-8.)
a.
Properly position the filter element in the box assembly and secure the cover assembly with the stud
fasteners.
NOTE
Check filter element for proper position by ensuring that the slightly raised
section in the bottom of the box assembly is completely inside the filter
element inner ring. After the cover assembly has been installed, open the
alternate air door manually by depressing the door to ensure that no
interference exist between the alternate air door and the filter element.
8-33. ALTERNATE AIR DOOR. The alternate air door is located in the alternate air box to provide a source of
air to the engine should there be an air stoppage through the filter system. The following should be checked
during inspection:
a.
Check that air door seals are tight and the hinge and torsion spring are secure.
b. Adjust the control cable to position the roller on the arm assembly clear of the door in the closed
position. Check that when the cockpit control is in the closed position the door is properly seated in the
closed position.
c.
Actuate the door by operating the control lever in the cockpit to determine that it is not sticking or
binding.
d. Check the cockpit control cable for free travel.
8-34. IGNITION SYSTEM.
8-35. MAGNETOS.
CAUTION
Ascertain that the primary circuits of both magnetos are grounded before
working on the engine.
NOTE
The magneto service instructions in this manual cover minor repairs and
timing. For further repairs and adjustments of the magnetos, it is
recommended that the magneto manufacturer’s service instructions be
followed. (Refer to Continental Service Bulletin No. M78-8 for additional
ignition maintenance.)
8-36. INSPECTION OF MAGNETOS.
a.
After the first 25 hour and 50 hour periods, and periodically thereafter, the contact assemblies should
be checked. Examine the points for excessive wear or burning. Points which have deep pits or
excessively burned areas should be discarded. Examine the cam follower felt for proper lubrication. If
necessary, points can be cleaned by using any hard finished paper. Clean breaker compartment with
dry cloth.
b. If engine operating troubles develop which appear to be caused by the ignition system, it is advisable
to check the spark plugs and wiring first before working on the magnetos.
