I work for a small charter airline, we fly cessna 206's and 172's. Anyways, the 2000 206 with the IO-540 had the engine crap out on us. On it's last 100 hr inspection there were metal shavings in the oil. Lycoming told us that the engine was out of warente and there was nothing the could do about it. I know that there has been some AD's and other problems with the 540's lately. My question is has anyone else run into this problem, and how was it solved?
