On the effective date specified below, and for the reasons set out in the background section, the CASA delegate whose signature appears below revokes Airworthiness Directive (AD) AD/FSM/31 Amdt 2 under subregulation 39.001 (1) of CASR 1998 and subsection 33 (3) of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901, and issues the following AD under subregulation 39.001 (1) of CASR 1998. The AD requires that the action set out in the requirement section (being action that the delegate considers necessary to correct an unsafe condition) be taken in relation to the aircraft or aeronautical product mentioned in the applicability section: (a) in the circumstances mentioned in the requirement section; and (b) in accordance with the instructions set out in the requirement section; and (c) at the time mentioned in the compliance section.
AD/FSM/31 Amdt 3  Fuel Injection Servo Plugs  21/2013

Applicability:  This AD applies to the following reciprocating engines with an installed Precision Airmotive LLC RSA-5 or RSA-10 series, or Bendix RSA-5 or RSA-10 series, fuel injection servo, having a servo plug gasket, part number (P/N) 365533, that was installed under the fuel injection servo plug, P/N 383493, on or after 22 August 2006:

                     (a) Lycoming Engines IO, (L)IO, TIO, (L)TIO, AEIO, AIO, IGO, IVO, and HIO series reciprocating engines;

                     (b) Teledyne Continental LTSIO-360-RB and TSIO-360-RB reciprocating engines;

                     (c) Superior Air Parts, Inc. IO-360 series reciprocating engines.

                This AD also applies to any other Precision Airmotive LLC RSA-5 or RSA-10 series, or Bendix RSA-5 or RSA-10 series, fuel injection servo that was received for installation on an engine on or after 22 August 2006 without a P/N 2577258 gasket and does not have a letter "G" on the fuel injection servo plug, P/N 383493.

                This AD also applies to any other Precision Airmotive LLC RSA-5 or RSA-10 series, or Bendix RSA-5 or RSA-10 series, fuel injection servo if the installation history of the fuel injection servo is not known.
Requirement:       1. The registered operator of an aircraft fitted with an aeronautical product to which this AD applies (the registered operator) must inspect the fuel injection servo plug, P/N 383493, for looseness, by attempting to turn it by hand, while being careful not to damage the safety wire or seal. If the plug moves, it is loose.

                   If the plug is loose, the registered operator must carry out Requirement 2.

                   If the plug is not loose, the registered operator must repeat the inspection at the interval set out in the compliance section or carry out the mandatory terminating action in Requirement 3.
                   2. If the plug is found loose during the inspection detailed in Requirement 1, the registered operator must take all of the actions mentioned in paragraphs (a) to (j).
