Recommended Torque Values for Nut--Bolt combination
1. Be sure nut and/or bolt threads are clean and dry (unless Mfg. states otherwise).
2. Run bolt down near contact with washer or bearing surface and check “friction drag torque” required to turn
bolt/nut.
3. Add “friction drag torque” to the recommended torque value from Torque Table above. This value is considered

NOTE
Mooney Aircraft are delivered with the proper break--in oil; MIL--L--22851 or SAE--J1899 Spec. This oil
should be changed, after 25 hours or after oil consumption has stabilized, to oil conforming to Lycom-
ing specification [(ref. Lycoming SI 1014 ( )].
For M20M aircraft S/N 27--0001 & ON -- It is recommended to use multiviscosity oil in these aircraft.
NOTE
Lycoming recommends that all Lycoming turbocharged equipped engines be broken in and operated
with ashless dispersant oil only (ref Lycoming SI 1014 ( ).

Remove all ice or snow from all flying surfaces. The TKS ice protection system is not intended to
remove frozen deposits while aircraft is on the
ground. It is essential that all critical areas are
de--iced before any attempt to T/O is made.

At Level III, it is recommended that all Level II Inspections are complied with and that the following inspections are
added/included.

Level IV
Component Checks.
The following checks are detailed for use in conjunction with SECTION 30--12--01, TROUBLESHOOTING. In cases
where components can be checked on the aircraft as an alternative to bench testing, both methods are described.

Maintenance Practice Procedures


Check fluid delivery rate from Airframe/Propeller Pump. 1. Fill tanks to top of filler tube. Operate pump(s) at De--
Ice or Anti--Ice, as required, for a time period. Refill
tanks; measure quantity necessary to replenish to origi-
nal level. Calculate flow rate. Permitted limits are:
De--Ice -- 280 to 300 ml/min.
Anti--Ice -- 140 to 150 ml/min. OR
2. Remove Airframe/Propeller Pump. Bench test.
Check High Pressure Warn Switch. 1. Disconnect Nylon Tube from inlet to Filter. Connect
pressure gauge (0 -- 180 lbf/in2) (0 to 13 bar) to tube.
Use TKS Nylon Tube fittings. Operate Airframe/Propel-
ler pump in a series of short bursts (in order to limit rate
of pressure rise) and observe pressure at which High
Pressure Warn LED illuminates. Permitted limits are:
75 to 90 lbf/in2 (5 -- 6 bar) OR
2. Remove High Pressure Switch. Bench test.

sistance and continuity measuring device across Pins 1

should be no circuit through either switch and the resist-
ance should be greater than 10 megohms. Operate Air-
frame/Propeller pump in a series of short bursts to limit
the rate of pressure rise at each switch and observe the
pressure at which each operates. This pressure should
not be greater than 1.5 lbf/in2 (0,1 bar). With the switch
at a pressure above the operating pressure, there is to
be a circuit between Pins 1 & 2 with a resistance not
greater than 10 ohms. Switch pump OFF and observe
pressure when switch resets. This is to be not less than
0.5 lbf/in2 (0,03 bar). OR
2. Remove Low Pressure Switch (es) and bench test.

Check Porous Panels 1. Remove Access panels for access to applicable Pro-
portioning Unit. Disconnect Nylon tube connecting sus-
pect panel from outlet of Proportioning Unit. Connect
suitable pressureable supply of filtered fluid to this tube.
Purge tube and panel at a pressure not exceeding 40
lbf/in2 (2,6 bar). If a blockage exists, it will probably be-
come apparent at this stage. Reduce pressure to 4 lbf/

even fluid coverage.

2. Bench test. This is last resort due to having to remove
panel from Airframe.
Check fluid delivery from Windshield Pump. 1. Remove panels to gain access to pump(s). Discon-

Operate pump by pressing ”WINDSHIELD” switch on
control panel. Collect fluid over a timed period of 5 sec-

operate Windshield Pump. No fluid should be dis-
charged from the spraybar (or Solenoid Valve outlet).

and maintain proper level.
Insufficient cooling air Verify the integrity of the air inlet
and outlet ducting to the oil cooler.
Repair or replace parts in accor-
dance with the airframe manufac-
turer’s manual as necessary.
Improper grade of oil Use only grade and weight of oil
specified for the engine. Consult
TEXTRON--Lycoming Service In-

operator’s manual for seasonal vis-
cosity recommendations.
Oil cooler or oil cooler lines are Remove oil cooler and oil cooler

ly.
Excessive blow--by Perform a differential compression
check. Do boroscope inspection to
identify the source of the blow--by.
Perform top overhaul to correct
problems associated with broken,
worn, or stuck rings.
Defective oil temperature gauge Install master oil temperature
gauge and run engine to compare
gauges. Replace faulty gauge.

Failed or failing bearings Excessive bearing wear may be
determined by the presence of
metal in the oil suction screen or oil
filter. Disassemble engine for in-
spection and replacement of bear-
ings.
Incorrectly installed piston rings, Perform a differential compression
worn piston rings, glazed or exces- check. Do boroscope inspection
sively worn cylinder barrels (air leaking past rings can be de-
tected by listening for a hissing
sound in the crankcase at the

Worn valve guides Remove cylinders from engine and
take out valves. Measure guides
for wear. Replace guides worn out

sion of TEXTRON--Lycoming Ser-
vice Bulletin 388B.
Excessive oil leaks Inspect external area of engine for
leaks and repair same.
Oil being siphoned from engine in Verify the oil filter cap is secure

properly. Verify that the breather
hose is cut properly and located to
prevent siphoning.

manual.
Externally adjustable type--In-
crease oil pressure by turning ad-

Solid tower type--Add 1/4 inch
standard flat washers to increase
oil pressure; remove washers to

Improper weight of oil used Use the recommended viscosity of
oil for the ambient temperature.
Refer to the engine operator’s
manual.
Oil passage plugged from pressure Remove pressure relief valve from
relief valve to sump the engine and run a soft copper
wire down through the oil passage
to the sump to clear blockage.
Note: If blockage persists remove
sump and clear passage.
Relocated oil pressure takeoff Use only the approved oil pressure
point on the engine takeoff point. Note: If the oil pres-

moved closer to the oil pump dis-
charge, a rise in oil pressure will be
noted.
Oil temperature is too cold Allow oil temperature to increase

The Mooney Aircraft Corporation wiring/equipment system originally depicted a typical Wire Identification Number
as M--PA03A18. This 9--character number, applicable to 800310 drawing only, is composed of five functional
groups, each of which communicates certain specific information. These functional groups are as follows:

M-- -- first letter and (--) depict -- Aircraft Type (M20M)


PA -- first two letters -- Circuit Function
03 -- second set of numerals -- Wire Sequence
A -- single letter in the series -- Configuration
18 -- last two numerals in the series -- Wire Size

The Mooney Aircraft Corporation wiring/equipments identification system used in current production aircraft de-
letes the Model Number annotation. The purpose of this is to standardize the identification of a system function/
component for all model of aircraft. The functional groups are basically the same as earlier identification num-
bers.
These new functional groups apply to master schematic drawing 800304. The new functional groups are as follows:
CR -- First two/three letters -- Circuit Function
04 -- First set of numerals -- Wire Sequence
