CAUTION: Some over -haulers have substituted data plates bearing their own names and/or logos on carburetors originally manufactured by M SA or its predecessors. Such obfuscation of the actual manufacturer of an aircraft component can lead to confusion as to wh at service bulletins and or Airworthiness Directives apply to what units (see MSA Service Bulletin SB-16).

Regardless of what name or logo appears on the data plate, this service bulletin applies to every MFB HA -6™ carburetor ori ginally manufactured by MSA or its predecessors unless it is specifically exempted above.

NOTE: Machined from billet HA -6™ carburetors can be identified by their faceted, milled surfaces and their golden color, see Figure 3 & Figure 4 below. Do not confuse MFB HA-6™ carburetors with die-cast HA-6™ carburetors.

2. Reason: Marvel-Schebler® has discovered a very dangerous problem involving loose mixture control sleeves or sleeves that mig ht become loose and is issuing this SB to inform over-haulers, owners, and operators of serious issues with certain MFB HA-6™ carburetors.

3. Background: This service bulletin is prompted by a reported in -flight loss of engine power resulting in the forced landing of an aircraft equipped with a made from billet HA-6™ carburetor. Upon inspection, Marvel-Schebler™ determined that the carburetor’s mixture control sleeve was loose and had rotated in the carburetor body. If a mixture sleeve rotates sufficiently it will interrupt fuel flow to the engine.

4. Procedure:

A. For every affected MFB HA-6™ carburetor installed on an aircraft, prior to further flight:

i. Remove the carburetor and send it to Marvel-Schebler® for inspection and possible repair before re-installing on the aircraft;

ii. Replace the carburetor with a serviceable MFB HA-6™ carburetor of the proper part number that is exempt from this SB; or, iii. Replace the carburetor with a serviceable die-cast HA-6™ carburetor of the proper part number.

B. For every affected MFB HA-6™ carburetor in inventory or otherwise not installed on an aircraft, prior to releasing such carburetors for flight, submit such carburetors to Marvel-Schebler® for inspection and possible repair.

5. Voiding of Warranty and Waiver of Liability : Operation of a carburetor in which other than genuine Marvel-Schebler® approved parts are installed voids any otherwise applicable warranty and constitutes a complete and total waiv er to the extent permitted by law of any and all rights the owner, operator and/or service facility or repairer may have had to hold Marvel-Schebler Aircraft Carburetors LLC responsible or liable for the malfunction or failure of such an aviation carburetor.

6. Safety First: Marvel-Schebler® is a customer-service oriented company committed to technical innovation in pursuit of aviation safety. While Marvel-Schebler® has no authority to compel owners to act responsibly and take prudent action to insure their own safety and the safety of others, Marvel-Schebler® believes compliance with this EMERGENCY Service Bulletin is important and will help to insure safer, better maintained and better performing products.
