Hash: SHA1 A friend of mine has the new Jabiru 6 cylinder engine in his home built with ~100 hours on it. He says that every 25 hrs, he has to adjust the valves. At his 100 hour, he has to do a differential pressure test. After helping him with his pressure test, we noticed that #6 was out of spec for losing pressure. It turns out that the fix for the pressure issue was to tighten the head bolts on #6. Is this a normal amount of maintenance for a jibaru? Am I the only one who thinks this is a bit too much effort for maintaining an aircraft engine?
