I vaguely recall someone mentioning to me once that there was an AD

Anyone have pointers (or is this perhaps an "urban myth")?

Thanks...

It is an AD that applies to the Piper PA22 I own. The cigar lighter in
all three 100 series Cessnas I have owned were disconnected per a
Cessna Service Bulletin (never became an AD AFIK)

Then what powers your 396?
