Thanks for all the replies, I anticipated the answer, but then again, maybe? I have been doing most of it, then my A&P finishes with me and does the logs. Now, re oil change with so little time.(thinking 100 hr comparison) What advise there? I am thinking change oil but not filter, or would you advise, not even changing oil? Thanks in advance, Charlie Heathco

On my RV-8A (IO-360), I change oil based on calendar time (4 months) or run time (25 hrs), whichever occurs first. I consider this a cheap investment to protect a $20k engine. I also always change the filter, primarily to do a check of the element for metal. I also get an oil analysis.
I also use Camguard.

Pulling the cowl each four months also affords the opportunity to inspect the entire engine compartment. I almost always find something that needs tightening or securing.

I may be weird, but I enjoy working not the bird almost as much as flying.

Just my 2 cents.
