How to Hang an Engine

摘要

Most owners do it the most expedient and costly way and just have the local shop pull, send out for overhaul (or do it in house) or get a reman engine swap and have the shop reinstall the engine. If you have a week-end, a place to do it without being hassled by airport management and an A&P to supervise the work in certificated aircraft, you can save a great deal of money and learn an invaluable amount of information about your engine. Hang it yourself. Whether you buy an overhauled or remanufactured factory engine or a field overhaul to new or overhaul limits or field overhaul your existing engine yourself under supervision doesn't matter. There is still a lot of work to do to make sure the engine is properly installed.
