By how much more is the Lycoming to overhaul and why? I have an old hand A&P
friend who says the Lycoming is easier to work on than the Continental.
Also, didn't Cessna start using the Lycoming in their later model 150's ?

Please reply

Anyone here have cost information to do a major overhaul on a 110 hp
engine
(C150). I'm in south Florida and am considering buying a plane with
high
time engine.

Thanks
Marty


Cessna 150's came from the factory with 100 HP Continental O-200's.
Majoring the engine costs 5 to 10 thousand, sometimes more.


There is a huge difference in overhaul costs between the Continental O-200
in the 150 and the Lycoming O-235 in the 152. The cost to overhaul the
Lycoming will be much higher.
