Heh, my Standard Airworthiness ASH-26E engine uses mostly stuff from
the auto parts and hardware stores. This per the maintenance manual,
so perhaps that makes them TSO....

I do get worried by done of this. If an A&P really just does not have
their head screwed on properly to be dealing with this I really worry
wether they ought to be working on sailplanes. They may well do but it
just raises some alarm bells about how much they know/work on gliders.
OTOH maybe it's somebody in a FSDO being silly wanting 337 paperwork for
something most FSDOs would wonder why an A&P is bothering them with
paperwork for.
Sigh.
