Hi Alasdair, I cannot find this Mod on the Club website. Could you help please? Remi Guerner <<<<<<The Europa Club have a standard LAA approved mod for the addition of a fuel flow transducer that all
Thank you Ian for posting the LAA mod. I have not installed a fuel flow in my aircraft but if I had to, I would use the attached schematic which allows measuring the flow to the carbs with a single s
Svein, I basically agree with what you wrote. However my proposed schematic is very close to the one recommanded (and optionally supplied) by Rotax in the 912 Install Manual (see attached). This arra
Surprisingly they do not mention the type of mogas supplied. There is a safety issue here! I do not know about the other airfields but Sywell supplies 82UL which is ok for the 912 but not for the 912
To Tru-Trak autopilot users, Are you aware of the attached Service Bulletin? They recommand to fit a safety bracket to prevent the screw securing the servo arm to get loose. The good news is that the
Hi all, I am the unlucky owner of an engine (912ULS) which is prone to kick back on cold starts. During the 6 years and 500 hours of operation I have tried EVERYTHING suggested by the Rotax factory,
Hi Karl, Look carefully at section 74-00-00 of the SI-912-020 R4. Page 1 of this section mentions the new fly wheel hub and its timing characteristics. Page 4 shows the drawing I attached to my previ
As there was only one reaction to my post, it seems that only two of us have this recurrent kick-back problem. Based on old threads years ago, that is surprising. That is why I repeat my message belo
Thank you to those who have responded (on and off list) with suggestions I have already tested.... with limited success. Either they have not read my post or they do not believe me when I said I have
Karl, I agree that preheating using the hairdryer method is what works best in winter. I have written an article on preheating which will be published in the Europa Flyer soon. Regards Remi Read this
Hi Frans, This is an old question and may be you got the answer in the mean time. I was also looking for this information and finally found it in the Rotax doc. It is in the Heavy Maintenance Manual
Hi all, This is the copy of the message I just posted on the Rotax forum: Rotax has recently introduced a new fly wheel hub with lengthened trigger cams which change the ignition timing during starti
Richard, I had the same problem with the tailwheel bearings. I replaced them with the ACS ones (P/N 06-00060). Removing the old bearings requires heating the wheel with an hair dryer to soften the gl
Bonjour Jean Paul, I had to rework my fairings too: heat with an hair dryer and slightly change the camber of the flange as required. Remi Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/vie
Juergen, The key to the effectiveness of the described method is to force the hot air around the cylinders fins through the Rotax air baffle. Blowing hot air through the two other holes of the XS Eur
Hi David, I also found that my dampers were not in good shape after 800 hours. I was tempted to try without them but decided against it as it seems they also serve as a guide to maintain the rubber b
Hi all, Still investigating the kick back problem on my 912S, I have a question for electronic engineers: The Rotax schematic shows two separate AWG18 shielded wires from the ignition modules to the
Hi all, My original brake pads lasted 635 flight hours. The second set (Cleveland 66-106) lasted only 159 hours. I also had to refill the master cylinder every 20 hours or so to compensate for the ra
Thank you Brian, this is good advice. I will try it. However I am wondering why on my car the pads and the disks last thousands times more without having to bother with conditioning! I really think t
