OR:

The Lycoming O-235 is a family of four-cylinder, air-cooled, horizontally opposed, piston aircraft engines that produce , derived from the earlier Lycoming O-233, O-233 engine.Textron Lycoming: ''Operator's Manual, Textron Lycoming Aircraft Engines, Series O-235 & O-290'', 4th Edition January 1988, Pages 2-1 & 2-4, Stock # 60297-9, Textron Lycoming. Well-known designs that use versions of the O-235 included the Cessna 152, Grumman American AA-1 series, Beechcraft Skipper, Beechcraft Model 77 Skipper, Piper PA-38 Tomahawk, American Champion Citabria, Piper PA-16 Clipper, Piper Clipper, and the Piper Colt, Piper PA-22-108 Colt.


Development

The engines are all carburetor-equipped, feature dual magneto ignition and have a displacement of 233 cubic inches (3.82 L). The first O-235 model was type certificate, certified on 11 February 1942. The O-235 was developed into the lighter-weight Lycoming IO-233 engine for light sport aircraft.
