Plug leads are easily replaced (cut off nylon and twist off. New plug leads
are $3.00 each. Rotax specifies a minimum "pull off" resistance for the pl
ug lead to pull it off which if it can not be achieved (it will take quite
some pull in my experience) required replacement of plug lead. Its in the H
eavy Maintenance Manual.

Hi! Karl, it sound stupidly simple but I recently twice had a plug lead fal
l off ? I have now fitted plastic cable ties as vertical restrainers.

Subject: Europa-List: Mag drop
I have excessive mag drop on one magneto and am not sure where to look for
the problem. Would anyone have any guidelines for this ? I have someone's c
ourse notes which state that: if you pull the choke while running on the ba
d mag, and if there is any change in rpm, then it is most likely a carb pro
blem. If there is no change then it is an ignition problem. I get an increa
se in rpm.
The engine ran fine 12 months ago. Since then I changed and re-arranged all
fuel lines. How would I identify the faulty carburetor ? And then what do
I look for ?
Any hints greatly appreciated.
Karl
