The airworthiness directive

48-05-01 DOUGLAS: Applies to All DC3 Aircraft Equipped With Pacific Aviation Oil Shutoff Valves.

Compliance required at first engine change after March 1, 1948, but not later than May 1, 1948.

Replace the present "O" rings in the oil shutoff valves with rings of H222-90 high temperature material or AMS-3228B material. There has been reported leakage attributed to the fact that the material in the "O" rings is not capable of withstanding the operating temperature of the oil.

(Douglas Service Bulletin DC3 No. 256 covers this same subject.)
