Engine
435 hours SETD on engine IRAN. Previous owner before me had prop strike on a taxi light, so engine was torn down and had worn parts replaced ("mini overhaul"). No damage from incident. This will buy more engine time that the recommended 2000 hr. TBO. if the engine needs 1 qt. of oil between 50 hr. Changes, that's even rare!!
