Found some numbers on my engine. It is ULS from 2001, I think. I would like to know if that's correct or not and what is my TBO?

Thank you!

Do you have an engine logbook?

I found it on engine and log book. Same number. Life is good! Thank you! I see TBO - 1200HR. I have already 1005 HR. Can I take it up to 1500 HR?

I might be wrong, but I thought the FAA ruled it is based on condition.

So, in ELSA as long as my engine is turning propeller = condition is good = it is OK to use? And I will decide on TBO?........3000 HR? How long do they last? Do we know anyone with 3000 HR?
