I was quoted $3000 plus what ever else they found from the 1 out of 5 agents that replied to me when I asked about a 1200hr service for my BF225.

I did the following myself

Thermostats
Exhaust manifold anodes (+gaskets)
Valve clearances
HP Fuel Filter
Oil
Oil filter
Fuel/Water separator
Replaced some rusty bolts with stainless
Valve cover seals
External anodes
Gear box oil
Cowling cover seal


$800 in parts and some data for YouTube!

You should have also have cleaned or replaced the IAC filter as well because if you do not and it gets clogged you develop idling problems .

Awesome, thanks! I’ll do that too! Mine has never been done! Just like my vapour separation tank had never been drained, I had to replace the whole tank with my 1200hr service because the screw was seized.

It certainly needed a clean, before and after pics.

Also did the the flame trap, it was pretty gummed up too.

You will also find some grit and dirt on the throttle body on the inside of the butterfly with your IAC filter looking like it was before you cleaned it you have done a good job
