Richard
Have you got the little plastic pipes from the carbs connected into the air
box?
I have had exactly the same symptoms on my 912 when I left the pipes
unconnected after working on the aeroplane. Good in the climb and missing
and rough when I pulled the power back.
Regards
Pete

Richard,
I would suggest you sign up for and post this question to the
Rotax-list@matronics.com as there is some good Rotax specific knowledge
there. Perhaps there's someone who has had the same experience.

My 912S hasn't run for almost 12 months. It started and ran well on ground
runs. Test flight was OK although there was some 'plucking'. Since then I
have flown three more times and am finding that the engine runs fine at full
revs or climb settings but when I back off at the top of the climb, it
splutters and coughs a bit and runs quite roughly as if it is missing a bit.
Doesn't fill me with confidence. I have pulled the plugs and they seem fine,
nice even grey colour, no oily plugs. Where do I look next?
