1.1 Engine
The DA20-C1 is equipped with a Continental, 4-cylinder, IO-240-B (fuel injected, opposed,
239.8 cubic inch) engine rated at 125 horsepower at 2800 RPM. The engine is direct drive
(crankshaft connected directly to the propeller), horizontally opposed (pistons oppose each
other), piston driven, fuel injected and normally aspirated (no turbo or supercharging).
Engine ignition is provided through the use of engine-driven magnetos, which are
independent of the aircraft’s electrical system and each other and utilize impulse coupling.

by a mechanical, engine driven pump. An oil dipstick indicates the level of oil in the tank.
The dipstick is marked for US quarts.
