The purpose of the safety wire is to limit the extension of the spring, preventing it opening sufficiently to allow it jump off the lugs. If done correctly, the spring should not be able to escape, no matter which way round it is assembled (unless something breaks). As with so many things, it is better to address the cause of the problem rather than the symptoms. It is the violent opening and closing of the exhaust expansion joint that is probably responsible for the spring =9Cjumping=9D off. Assuming that the ignition is timed correctly and the carburettors are balanced, this will only occur when the Rotax shakes its head during start-up, and to a lesser degree during shut-down. I would hazard a guess that the true solution to the problem would be Mark Burton=99s excellent =9CS oft Start=9D module.

This is how the CSA Sport Cruiser boys do it. > > Nigel One of the reasons this spring as shown needs a safety wire is that the spring is on the wrong way round. The openings face the lugs. So that it is easier to get the spring on, and easier for it to jump off. All my springs are put on the harder way with the spring end openings away from the lug. my 2 penny worth Richard Holder Links: ------ [2] http://webmail.m-tecque.co.uk/parse.php?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.matroni cs.com%2FNavigator%3FEuropa-List [3] http://webmail.m-tecque.co.uk/parse.php?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fforums.matr onics.com [4] http://webmail.m-tecque.co.uk/parse.php?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.matroni cs.com%2Fcontribution ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:22:33 AM PST US From: GRAHAM SINGLETON Subject: Re: Europa-List: RE: Pete and all=0AFergus=C2-may not receive Forum messages, he has a=C2-gl itch=C2-with his mail address so I' forwarded this direct.=0AGraham=0A=0A =0A________________________________=0A From: Peter Jeffers =0ATo: europa-list@matronics.com =0ASent: Thursday, 5 January 2012, 8:45=0ASubject: Europa-List: RE: =0A =0A=0A =0AHi Ferg,=0A=C2-=0AIf it is of any interest (it may save you=0Aa lot of searching) we live quite near London (30 miles) and are going to=0AHelidon on Saturday returning Sunday. =C2-=C2- If you wish we would be happy to accommodate=0Ayou on Friday n ight and transport you and the =98Authority=99 to Helidon and b ack.=0A=C2-=0APete & Sue=0A=C2-=0A=0A________________________________ =0A =0AFrom:owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com=0A[mailto:owner-europa-l ist-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of GRAHAM SINGLETON=0ASent: 05 January 2012 00:19=0ATo: europa-list@matronics.com=0ASubject: =0A=C2-=0AFergus=0A Kyle asked me to post this, he has a problem with his email =C2-address b eing=0Ablocked for some reason, =C2-so,,,,,,,,,,,,,,=0A=C2-=0A=9D =C2-Cheers,=0A=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-The=0AAutho rity has just announced that we will be attending the dinner on Saturday=0A night in Hellidon.
