Good Morning
I'm building lycoming O-230 E2A engine, when I disassembled the engine the number on the rods was facing the cam shaft. the book said to put he numbers towards the sump. The overhaul manual is a old 1979 edition any help wood be appreciate.

Thanks
Wayne

Face all numbers forward and any writing in the pistons the correct way up.

Wayne,

My Lycoming Overhaul Manual for 235 and 290-D page 34 section 8…. First….. “the cap must be assembled to the rod so that the numbers are adjacent to each other. In other words, the cap must not be assembled with its number on the opposite side from the number on the rod.”

Second…..“It is important, also to assemble the connecting rods to the crankshaft in such a manner that numbers stamped on the rods will be in the downward position when the engine is finally assembled.”

I also verified this with a Lyc tech sometime ago during an engine rebuild as well. Have a great time building. Take Care.
