| Subject: | Rotax First Engine Start |
I fired up the Rotax 912 ULS on my Van's RV-12 for a few moments this
morning....it started right up...with throttle at full closed could not
get rpm down to the 1800 or so I wanted at 'idle' it would not go less
than 3,470 rpm so I shut it down and left it for tomorrow...family
responsibilities only let me work on the plane for a few hours each
day....a quick peek through the oil door at the right carb didn't show
anything obvious, so I will have to await tomorrow to do some trouble
shooting....I fully suspect some sort of carb problem...I recall
carefully setting the controls and the stops when I installed the
engine, but something isn't quite right.
