Wouldn't be without it. regards Trev G-LINN In a message dated 11/08/2011 14:54:21 GMT Daylight Time, mp.gamble@talktalk.net writes: Anyone have experience of the attached gadget for pumping fuel?

Mike AS far as I'm concerned the item is good. The one I have is similar and it just never needs the batteries replacing ! Not so sure that the rubber seals within are really meant for petrol however leakage runs down the outside of the suction pipe back into the drum anyway. Allan Burrows sold me mine ...he had some kind of import deal from China I think. Excellent in the saving of lifting etc. Regards Bob Harrison G-PTAG From: owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Mike Gamble Sent: 11 August 2011 14:51 Subject: Europa-List: Emailing: 51b7gmpPjhL._SL500_AA300_.jpg Anyone have experience of the attached gadget for pumping fuel?

Total France say 2 or 3 more airfields are to be converted each month, often replacing the existing AVGAS 100LL offering. From a Europa Rotax selfish point of view it is good to see Europe is quickly moving in this direction. Clearly for most Mogas still the preferred choice at home. But, having looked at the lead deposits on my plugs recently, following fifty hours touring using both Avgas 100LL and Mogas, happy to see a more Rotax sympathetic option arrive for trips a long way from home.

We have Mogas 91 or 95 or 98, all unlea ded. Which is the best to use for the Rotax 912s? I have been using the high er octane however the 91 is considerably cheaper if it is suitable.
