2. Instructions for changeover to different brand engine oil:

NOTE: These instructions are applicable for fully approved engine oils, noted as “X”
per Tables 1 and 2.
NOTE: In general, engine oil brand mixing is not recommended. Occasional or
inadvertent (up to 4 quarts) adding of a different approved engine oil brand during
routine servicing of the engine oil tank does not require engine oil drain and
flush. It should be noted that dilution of any of the High Thermal Stability (HTS)
Engine Oils with Standard (non HTS) Engine Oils will reduce the performance
of the HTS Engine Oil.
NOTE: On engines with less than 250 hours since new manufacture or since overhaul
of all main bearing compartments and the No. 5 bearing compartment service
tubes, both the drain and fill method and the top off method of engine oil brand
changeover are acceptable. Additional oil filter inspections/replacements are
not required.
NOTE: In the case where an engine oil change is desired on a preserved engine that
has accumulated more than 250 hours since new manufacture or since overhaul
of all main bearing compartments and the No. 5 bearing compartment service
tubes, re-fill the engine with the previously used engine oil type. When the
engine returns to service operation, utilize the Top Off Method for changing over
to the desired engine oil brand.
A. Change-over by Top Off Method, as follows:
(1) Begin using new engine oil brand as required, by topping off engine oil tank
with new engine oil.
(2) Mark engine oil tank with suitable label that identifies the new engine oil brand.

Not subject to the EAR per 15 C.F.R Chapter 1, Part 734.3(b)(3).
 (3) Replace and inspect the scavenge oil filter at intervals of no more than 250
hours after beginning the conversion to the new engine oil. Inspect filter for
signs of loosening of deposits, which may be in the engine from the engine oil
used before.
(4) Continue replacement and inspection of the scavenge oil filter at intervals of no
more than 250 hours, until a total of 500 hours have been accumulated after
beginning the conversion to the new engine oil.
(5) If the scavenge filter results are normal after a total of 500 hours have been
accumulated since the beginning of the conversion to the new engine oil, return
to the normal filter change intervals.
(6) If the scavenge filter debris are found to be more than normal, contact IAE
Technical Services for recommended actions.
B. Change-over by Drain and Fill method. This method is only to be used for engines
with less than 250 hours since new manufacture or since overhaul of all main bearing
compartments and the No. 5 bearing compartment service tubes:
(1) Drain engine oil from engine oil tank and gearbox.
(2) Fill engine oil system with new engine oil and mark the engine oil tank with a
suitable label that identifies the new engine oil brand.
(3) Replace the scavenge oil filter at 250 hours after filling with new engine oil, and
inspect for signs of loosening of deposits, which may be in the engine from the
prior engine oil used.
(4) If the scavenge oil filter debris are found to be more than normal, contact IAE
Technical Services for recommended actions.
3. Field Service Evaluation (FSE) Guidelines:
NOTE: The following instructions are applicable for engine oil approved for field
evaluation, noted as “0” per Tables 1 and 2.
NOTE: The FSE requires data to be collected at prescribed intervals on a minimum
of 6 engines within a participating operator’s fleet. Selected engines must be
planned to accumulate at least 5000 flight hours with the evaluated engine oil in
use before the next major overhaul. The participating operator may continue to
convert remaining engines to the new engine oil (during the FSE period) once
the FSE program has a one year or greater lead over the rest of the fleet.
A. Contact IAE Technical Services to confirm the field evaluation criteria is still in place.
B. Utilize the Top-Off Method for oil conversion.
C. Field Service Evaluation is as follows:
(1) Analyze the Scavenge Oil Filter: Continue replacement and inspection of the
scavenge oil filter at intervals of no more than 250 hours, until a total of 500
hours have been accumulated, followed by intervals per Airframe MPD, until a
total of 5000 hours have been accumulated after beginning the conversion to
the new engine oil.
(a) Inspect for signs of loosening of deposits, which may be in the engine from
the engine oil used before.
(b) Visually inspect, photo document and analyze replaced filters.

 (c) Flush and collect contaminants.
(2) Collect engine oil samples. Analyze and document the engine oil condition at “A”
check (750 hour) intervals for 5000 hours. Test each engine oil sample using
the following criteria:
(a) Spectrometric Oil Analysis Program (SOAP) analysis
(b) Total Acid Number (TAN)
(c) Kinematic Viscosity
(3) After four of six engines exceed 5000 flight hours, submit a report to IAE
Technical Services, detailing the results of all engine oil and oil filter analyses
(per the above guidelines) for approval.
NOTE: If any engines show engine oil related issues, operators should provide details to
IAE Technical Services for engineering evaluation.
4. Recording Instructions
A. A record of accomplishment is required.
