Its a pitty Bing / Rotax still use paper or cork gaskets were Viton would eliminate
this issue, especially on the 914 were there is a significant differential
pressure between the inside of the carb bowl and ambient.
Another thing is when you remove the carb bowls without removing the carbs from
the engine, it can be difficult to put them back on without pinching the gasket.
Use a mirror to make sure the gasket is positioned in its groove all around
before tightening the bowl.

| Subject: | Flight Test Cards |
I was wondering if anybody had developed Flight Test Cards for an Europa XS tri-gear
with a Jabiru 3300 engine. I found one from Bill VonDane, but it appears
to be for a Rotex.
I have an FAA Inspector coming out on Friday so it looks like I'll be doing my
first flight this coming Monday. If he gives me the Airworthiness Certificate
and doesn't find anything major wrong with my build.

Rotax 9xx folks,
FWIW, I located a source of Nitrile float bowl gaskets for the Bing 64 carbs on
the Rotax 912 & 914 engines.
Supposed to be superior to both the paper and cork gaskets:

I have ordered a pair of them to see how they will work and will let the lists
know what I find out.
Blue skies & tailwinds,
