Basic principle of piston engines: &amp;ldquo;Suck, squeeze, bang, blow.&amp;rdquo; 
Many pilots have never seen the Engine Operating Handbook (EOH), though POH trumps EOH 
Use actual aircraft engine, preferably the training aircraft when uncowled during an oil change 
Scenarios: 
High EGT &amp; Oil Temp during climb 
Low oil pressure with rising oil temperature - set timer for 2 minutes then give student scenario, at end of two minutes engine has failed 
One high CHT that jumps high then low (probe failure) 
Sudden engine vibration - EGTs/CHTs normal 
Engine failure on takeoff (requires before takeoff briefing every time, all the time) 
Sudden prop overspeed 
Introduce Powerplant Maintenance Logbook and entries required for airworthiness 
Introduce Propeller Maintenance Logbook and entries required 
Introduce maintenance shop and mechanics as resource for questions or items that come up during preflight.
