It is necessary to remove manually the two filters frequently after each fly because during 100 first flight hours there is some impurity's into the filters.

The certified engines were installed in certified airplanes, the Katana is one example. I would say its "other non road compression-ignition engine" but thats just an assumption on my part. I do not know what customs want or need. One other thing, here in the states, when a certified engine, such as a Lycoming IO360 is installed in a experimential airplane then the engine is considered "Experimential" and no longer a certified engine. by the FAA.

I am trying to finish filling in the EPA form. I have put in the obvious stuff like date of build and serial number but I have to choose a box to check under certified and non certified engines. Well I think un certified is the way to go but it is a sheer guess since I do not have any paperwork from Rotax saying it is certified. So, if I go for uncertified is it =93other non road compression- ignition engines. See 40CFR part 89 or parts 1039 and 1068=94 ?? This is a Rotax 914 engine. It started life in our Europa and has always been there.. I just do not know what to list it as on the EPA form 3520-21. I would really appreciate any help forthcoming. Thanks Alan -- 21/12/2006 18:45 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 06:44:12 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Customs From: irampil@notes.cc.sunysb.edu Hi Alan, Rotax does sell certificated engines to OEMs like Diamond (Katana). They cost many thousands more than uncertified versions (last I heard, about $4,000) which are otherwise mechanically identical. I personally never heard of someone installing a certificated Rotax in a homebuilt - very low benefit / cost ratio = essentially zero. If you really, really have some reason to think it might be a cert. engine, pull off the lower cowl, copy off the serial number on the lower left side of the block and call Kodiak. They can look it up.

BTW anyone with a 375, make sure you lock the in and out 4 countersunk screws by center punching into the dimples made for this purpose. Ron Parigoris ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 08:58:42 AM PST US Subject: RE: Europa-List: Fuel supply for Rotax 914 From: I stole ideas for Modular Fuel System from Ian, Ferg and others. A bit hard to tell from pic but instead of using a "T" to split the in line, and culminate the out line, I used beautiful injection molded 316L Stainless Barb "Y"s made by Eldon James. The outputs of gasculators go to 1 pump and 1 one way. The output of Modular Fuel System with the yellow cap is one of the "Y"s, the other is used to split the incoming for the gasculators you can't see in this pic. Wicks sells nice 90 degree barb fittings, large internal holes and radiused edges. The pumps and 1 ways are mounted to port baggage bay rib with 2 pump clamps (using allen screws) and 1 long screw for the 1 ways with an aluminium spacer.

We have moved and having to build a shop so that has put the Europa in limbo for the last 8 months so no progress. I would like to get a setup manual. Can you mail one and I can just send you a check. We now live in Ellensburg WA because of a gaggle of gkids in SEA. I hope all is well with you.
