I have just fitted two new soft start modules to my Rotax 912ULS. Should they both
be activated by the start switch and start on both modules. or select only
one module to start then activate the second by going to both. I have only wired
up one module at the moment but have installed wire to be used from the second
module if it is ok to do so.?
Any experts out there?

There will definitely be others with more in-depth knowledge than me to give you
a solid engineering answer, but my experience leads me to suggest that if both
your ignition systems are the same, then why not use them simultaneously to
get your engine started?
If only one soft start module was fitted, then it would probably be wise to start
using only that one to reduce the likelihood of the "kickbacks" such as ruined
my first starter sprag clutch. That was when I had two earlier design ignition
modules, but now that I have the current design of modules both incorporating
a few seconds of ignition timing retardation, I start using both modules
without hassles.

| Subject: | 914 generator disconnected and running fuel pump #1 |
Hi Group I have a curiosity question. If a 914 is wired as per Europa's schematic,
if the battery is taken off line Fuel Pump #1 will run off the generator.
Question: Is there an RPM where the generator will not supply enough power to keep
Fuel Pump #1 running?
In other words if on final with pump #1 running only on generator and you pull
power will the engine quit?
Thx. Ron P.
