    Legit a better teaching than what I learned in person!

    Many of us are working on homebuilt/experimental aircraft, so we are perfectly legal installing and timing mags, without an airframe and powerplant rating.

    So the TDC mark aligns with the TOP case split? Other instructions say the little hole on the starter?

      Same.

      In the video he stated and is showing the 25 degree alignment mark on the rear of the starter ring aligned with the split in the top of the crankcase. There is also a 25 degree mark on the front of the ring gear that aligns with the hole in the starter. So, there are two ways to align the gear to 25 degrees BTDC as stated in the Piper manual.

    Very interesting and informative video. I notice it's using the Tempest brand oil filter, which Champion Aerospace recommends against.

      Tempest competes with Champion so of course Champion Aerospace recommends against its use... Like Dah.

    • @G4Disco

      In this case imagine the aircraft is on it's nose. That cylinder he pointed to is on the right or co-pilot side if you are sitting in the seat.

    Right left side cylinder is confusing to amateurs. Number 1 cylinder is farthest forward on Lycoming, farthest rear in continental. TIO-541- Lycoming number one is on the left from the rear.
