Full official abstract
Airworthiness Directives; Textron Lycoming O-235 Series Reciprocating Engines
This document publishes in the Federal Register an amendment adopting airworthiness directive (AD) 95-03-10 that was sent previously to all known U.S. owners and operators of Textron Lycoming O-235 series reciprocating engines by individual letters. This AD requires a one- time inspection within the next 5 hours time in service to determine the part number (P/N) and revision letter of the push rod installed on the engine. All push rods with P/N 73806 and revision letters ``V'' or ``W'' must be replaced with serviceable parts. This amendment is prompted by reports of several failures of push rods. The actions specified by this AD are intended to prevent engine roughness and power loss, which could result in loss of the aircraft.
