Amdt 1

Vented Fuel Caps - Installation 9/88

Applicability: Model 336 with S/Nos. 336-0001 to 336-0195. Requirement: Install vented fuel cap(s) in accordance with:

Cessna SL No. SE 77-6; or

FAA AD 79-10-14, Amendment 39-3475.

Compliance: Within 100 hours time in service after 31 August 1979; or Before 1 January 1980; whichever is the later.

Background: To guard against the possibility of either an obstructed primary vent or sticking of the fuel tank vent valve it has been found necessary to provide secondary venting in the form of vented fuel caps. Due to some misinterpretation of this Directive a note has now been added to disallow the fitting of a placard.
