A proposal is not in force. If adopted, it becomes an AD, usually with changes. Only the Federal Register edition is official.

Summary

We propose to rescind an airworthiness directive (AD) for Lycoming Engines model TIO 540-A series reciprocating engines. The existing AD, AD 71-13-01 (Amendment 39-1231) resulted from a report of a failed fuel injector tube assembly.

Since we issued AD 71-13-01, we became aware that Lycoming Engines no longer supports Service Bulletin (SB) No. 335A, which was incorporated by reference in AD 71-13-01. The intent of the requirements of that SB is now in Lycoming Engines Mandatory SB No. 342F. This proposal to rescind AD 71-13-01 allows the public the opportunity to comment on the FAA's determination of the duplication of requirements in another AD, before we rescind the engine-level AD.

The resulting AD
