We were forwarded this from our Cessna Tech Rep. I don't know what IO360 the Oscar Deuce has but, this is worth a look. It also hits a bunch of Lycomings. :shock:

Yeah, this is bad news. We grounded our 4 Piper Arrows & Super Decathlon. 3 of the 4 Arrows had this issue; haven't inspected the Decathlon yet.

That fuel servo is for a Lycoming IO-360 (4 cylinder), not a Continental IO-360 (6 cylinder).
