Continental Engine Maintenance Tracker
Recurring-service board for Continental engines: the maker's actual service items with last-done/next-due dates and badges.
Continental's own compression guidance says the borescope outranks the gauge — a low reading with clean borescope findings is a re-check, not a teardown.

About Continental Engine Maintenance Tracker
Continental's regime centres on SIL 98-9 (TBO), M-0 series manuals, the master-orifice compression standard with borescope correlation, and cylinder/valve-guide wear patterns that reward borescope-led monitoring. The maker-specific insight that should shape your records: Continental's own compression guidance says the borescope outranks the gauge — a low reading with clean borescope findings is a re-check, not a teardown. This board carries Continental's actual recurring items as its menu — oil & filter change, oil analysis sample, master-orifice compression, borescope (valves/cylinders) and the rest — each with last-done and next-due dates per engine, badges going amber three weeks out. It's the difference between a maintenance program and a pile of intentions.

Frequently asked questions
What's distinctive about maintaining Continental engines?+
Continental's regime centres on SIL 98-9 (TBO), M-0 series manuals, the master-orifice compression standard with borescope correlation, and cylinder/valve-guide wear patterns that reward borescope-led monitoring. Practically: Continental's own compression guidance says the borescope outranks the gauge — a low reading with clean borescope findings is a re-check, not a teardown. Those specifics define the recurring items on this board — they're the maker's own schedule rather than generic engine folklore, which is why the tracker is engine-line-specific instead of one-size-fits-all.
Where do I find the authoritative intervals for my engine?+
The maker's current service documents — service bulletins, instructions and the maintenance/overhaul manuals for your exact model and serial range — plus any program (135, CAMP-style) your operation runs under. Intervals shift with revisions, so confirm against the current document set and record the reference in each entry's notes; this board tracks your dates, while the documents own the rules.
Why doesn't this tool sync to the cloud?+
By design: operational records are sensitive, and the simplest privacy guarantee is never transmitting them. Local-only storage means zero servers, zero breach surface and zero subscription. If you work from several devices, keep one as the master record and move snapshots with the CSV export.
How do I back up or print these records?+
Use the Export CSV button below the table: it downloads your full engine service record as a spreadsheet-ready file. From there you can print a clean copy, archive it with your records folder, or import it into any other system. Exporting monthly is a good habit since the working data lives only in your browser.
