I have had that happen with my McCauley constant speed three blade prop 
on my 2003 Cessna 182T and am in the process of having it resealed now 
for the second time in TT340hrs.  I was just wondering if the weight or 
properties of your  MT 4 blade might somehow be affecting the 
durability of the TSIO550 but if you say it is certified with the 
engine, I guess that is unlikely.

Putting the separate engine and prop problems aside, are you otherwise 
happy with the performance of the combination MT4 blade and TSIO 550E?

Thanks for your input
