Lycoming offers zero-time engines at overhaul price

By Janice Wood · May 11, 2009 ·

Lycoming Engines is offering zero-time, factory-rebuilt Lycoming engines to select pilots and owners at the price of a Lycoming factory overhaul until August 31.

Lycoming’s factory-rebuilt engines are built to the same limits as a new engine, said Todd Stoner, Lycoming vice president of marketing and sales. “They come with a zero-time logbook, just as their all-new counterparts. Best of all, they have the same two-year warranty as an all-new engine.

“We recognize that many owners may be nervous about the economy and so they are putting off new purchases in favor of overhauls,” Stoner said. “We are going to repay a select group of them for their commitment to genuine Lycoming parts and service by upgrading their overhaul service to a much more valuable commodity.”

The amount saved depends on the engine type, but on most the saving surpasses $3,000 Stoner said. A table comparing new, factory-rebuilt and overhaul prices is available at www.lycoming.com (choose “Engines” from the drop-down menu and then choose “Service Engines.”) The offer requires the return of a Lycoming factory new or rebuilt engine that has never been overhauled, otherwise known in the industry as a “first-run core.”

The promotion runs through August 31. To find out if you qualify or to find a distributor and order a zero-time, factory-rebuilt Lycoming engine, visit www.lycoming.com, click on “How to Buy” and then choose “Distributors” from the drop-down menu or call 1-800-258-3279.
