Description
Cirrus Aircraft 70092-001 Oil Breather Line Insulation Sleeve Kit — SR20, SB2X-71-10
In extremely cold weather, inadequate engine preheating can let moisture freeze in the oil breather line, which can cause high crankcase pressure, a gradual decrease in oil pressure, improper crankcase venting and possible loss of engine oil.
Cirrus classes SB2X-71-10 as mandatory, at the next scheduled maintenance, annual inspection, or within 100 flight hours, whichever occurs first.
What the kit does: Supplies the insulation sleeve fitted over the oil breather line, with its forward clamp.
Why it works. Insulating the breather line keeps the moisture in it from freezing in cold weather, and the added clamps hold the line and sleeve securely in place.
Note: For SR20 serials 1005 thru 1773, which also need clamp kit 70230-001. Refer to SB2X-71-10 to confirm applicability before ordering.
