pilot's front cylinder...

What kind of oil does this pilot contain? Is it red?

Dan, not sure what you're getting at here...anyway, partner and I did
go out and lay a wrench on the offending bolt tonight. Just at this
time the on-field A&P showed up and together we tightened the nut
down, looking carefully to see of the bolt began to back out. It did
not. That's good news to us.

So, taking advice from here and elsewhere, we are going to test fly it
Saturday, check for proper torque, then go on a short hop, test again,
then keep an eye on it until we pull the cowling and check all the
nuts we can visualize.

Thanks for all the comments, the first year or so of ownership has
been very educational.

Best,
