When I was made my second or third fly with my europa 145, I have the same problem, the cables bend into the box ! Also I applied this radical solution. And I used this solution on many others rotax engines. If the spring is broken or inoperative, the piano wire performs the function with great reliability.

This is with blocked side gills (the side vents at the back of the top cowl). However, there is no lip seal around th e airbox, so hot air can vent through the NACA duct in the top cowl, after shut down. Typically in flight, the temperatures in the proximity of the mo dules is about +20C on ambient (OAT), or up to +30C differential in climbou t. I don't see much point of a temperature limitation for the softstart; it's not flight-critical, although the boxes under it are, and aren't helped by intimately sticking the softstart on top!

If the cable bends in the t hrottle box, it is generally not a lubrication problem or even a sticky oil c able to sheath issue. It is a problem with the cable installation, most lik ely a kinked or bound cable. Maintainers unfamiliar with the Europa often l ook at the cables and are appalled that they are loose and not firmly bound a ll along their route to the carb. In their attempt for neatness, they bind t he cable(s) and cause them to bind. Builders also fail to get their initial throttle box alignment correct to prevent the cable(s) from cleanly enterin g the sheath from the throttle arm. I recently scolded one of my clients fo r allowing a well known Rotax repair facility touch his cable routing. The r epairman kinked the cables and bound them tightly. It was an older Classic ( 20+ years old), so upon installation of his new cables, all worked flawlessl y again. >>>> >>>> Cables must be anchored and aligned properly on both ends and frankly, t he area in between must be loopy and only lightly affixed to prevent interfe rence in the wheel well of the mono. >>>> >>>> A new set of cables can be purchased, but still, the running of the cab les, the alignment in the home made throttle box and fixation to the carby m ust be addressed. >>>> To supplement my article on "Throttle and choke cable etiquette" attach ed, please check the following: >>>> >>>> Prior to removing the cables to rebuild them to proper spec. one can ch eck that the cables are not kinked or tightly bound, the cable binding nuts o n the throttles are lubricated and free to rotate, and the throttle box cabl e pivot points on the arm are free to operate. (The only two points requiri ng lubrication are this pivot on the throttle linkage and the box cable pivo t attachment in my opinion.) Look into the throttle box for proper cable al ignment. If issues are found, simply removing the cable/throttle box to you r nice warm workbench and correcting issues is all that is needed. I find t hat if the cable itself is kinked, or unraveled, it is best to replace the c ables as it is not worth the time. If the cable will not operate laid out o n the bench, it won't work in the plane. If you have to tug on a cable in e ither direction to get it to move, you have a damaged sheath. Remember, cab le sheaths are just a coil of wire wrapped around a nylon tube.

(Although I have used a graphite lube to ease customers fears from the cons tant complaints of club members/owners on this subject.) The sheath is line d with nylon, coiled in stainless, then heat shrink over the top making a di rt resistant sheath for the twisted wire cable. My old original Classic cab les from 1998 (I'm not sure if they were supplied by Europa) were damaged by the original builder and were shortened in length, but alas his technique w as poor as the cable sheaths were bent hard, the cable end cuts were smashed and the cable attachments were misaligned in the throttle box. So there wa s much to correct. Note that if supplied with an aftermarket or original no n lined sheath, they are best replaced as stainless steel to stainless steel can lead to a corrosion problem eventually. My 2005 supplied Europa cables have been good now for 15+ years with only a single light lube of a Teflon o r graphite that was used during inspection (I can't remember what lube I use d on the cloth as I was more interested in corrosion of the cables here in Fl orida). The reason I pulled my cables was for an experiment during my rubbe r replacement at the 10 year condition inspection, when I also chose to inst all a throttle friction. >>>> >>>> Some owner/builders have done solid cables of wire, model airplane nyro d push pull cables, and Zenith style solid rod to a welded arm on the firewa ll that allows both throttles to be actuated via a short push pull cable.

The resistance of a CAP is 120 kg per mm=C2=B2 ie 135 kg for a diameter of 1.2 mm and 212 kg for 1.5 mm=C2=B2. Even if the steel was of poor quality, for exa mple 60 kg, the actions of pushing and pulling are not sufficient to cause it to break, on top of that the piano wire is double! can be shear by a bolt ?
