Paul,
I have just uncrated my engine this weekend and discovered that mine is the
same as yours. I'd be interested to hear from others out there to help
determine if Rotax have changed the design of the silencer. If this is the
case I suspect we will need a different exhaust pipe.

> The 914 engine installation says to TIG weld a stub into the tapered
silencer outlet to allow the down pipe to clamped on. The silencer on my
recently delivered engine does not have a tapered outlet, rather a parallel
sided on with 4 slits on it. The piece of stub pipe is significantly smaller
than the outlet and will require a large amount of weld to fill the gap. In
addition the slots in the silencer outlet would appear to also need welding
up as they are longer than the stub. If this rambling means anything to
anyone can you tell me if this is a correct state of affairs.
