9. ensure an adequate cool down period prior to shut off may lead to particle deposits and cause damage to bearings and seals Hard oil residues can obstruct parts of the oil system and lead to damage In addition to insufficient cool down periods the use of unsuitable oils and not obeying oil change intervals can especially cause such damage Long term operation with an engine that is too cold and or operating too long with an overly rich fuel mixture can cause water and fuel contamination in the oil reducing its lubrication capacity Furthermore long down times with oil that contains water and contaminants can cause corrosion damage especially on the bearings with serious consequential damage The criteria for correct motor oil selection are Correct oil viscosity for cold starts and sufficient oil pressure at high temperatures Good gear wear protection Avoidance of clutch slipping due to use of additives Insufficient oil flow capability so that too much volume remains in the engine leading to low oil level in the external oil tank This can only be detected during testing with an oil level indicator installed on the oil tank Ability to withstand combustion products containing lead which enter the oil during AVGAS operation High oiltemperature durability This is especially important for the turbo engine due to the risk of oil carbon build up on the bearing and sealing seats of the turbocharger The oil carbon build u
