This certainly shouldn't be til at least 1000 hours or so. I also have a residue on the bottom of my plane, but I beleive it is 95% fuel exaust residue since it is white and I rarely burn2 Quarts of oil in 25 hours. On the other subject, Lycon moved my throttle-body from the rear of the oil pan to the front for$125.00, and is was well worth it having it in a much better position. Lycon is very busy and way behind,so plan ahead. As to voiding the warrenty, How about discussing it with them first, you are certainly not doing anything that would change the operation of the engine. Sincerely Fred N9BF
