PREFACE

This handbook covers the installation, operation and maintenance of the five different types of AERONCA engines now in service; namely, the E-107A, E-113, E-113A, E-113B, and E-113C.

The index on the following pages provides a ready means of finding the desired information. Additional information will gladly be supplied by our service department on request.

It is the object of this company to build high grade, dependable aircraft engines. Suggestions for improvement of these engines, their equipment or the servicing thereof, are welcome and will be given careful consideration.

The instructions contained in this handbook are the results of our experience in the design, development, manufacture and actual operation of AERONCA engines. We are confident that if these instructions are followed, the engine will render a long and dependable service.

From time to time, as additional experience is made available, engineering bulletins will be sent out to all AERONCA owners so that they may profit by this new information.

There are five types of AERONCA engines now in service; namely:

AERONCA E-107A - 30 HP at 2500 RPM - Serial Nos. 26 - 499
AERONCA E-113  - 36 HP at 2400 RPM# - Serial Nos. 500 - 699
AERONCA E-113A - 36 HP at 2400 RPM* - Serial Nos. 700 - 899
AERONCA E-113B - 36 HP at 2400 RPM* - Serial Nos. 900 - 1099
AERONCA E-113C - 36 HP at 2400 RPM* - Serial Nos. 1100 - Up 
* Department of Commerce Rating. 

All of these engines bear a close resemblance to each other, the main difference being that the E-107A has an L head, while the other four have overhead-valve construction. The E-113C supersedes the E-113B engine, which supersedes the E-113A and E-113 engines.

In this handbook, the following definitions will be used:

The propeller end of the engine will be called the "front" end, and the accessory end the "rear." The right and left sides will be referred to as viewed from the rear.
