...both for the link and the memory help!

I can remember cringing the first time an old 20th AF wrench told me how regularly hydraulic lock was encountered with the early 3350's on Superforts...and that rotating the prop backwards to drain the oil back into the intake line was common.

Now was the old fart pulling my leg, or have you fellows heard similar stories?

Best wishes,

Dan
