What aftermarket cable/knob/bellcrank systems are there for better mechnical advantage? Thanks Ben ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 11:31:35 AM PST US From: "Lowell Fitt" Subject: Re: Kitfox-List: Rotax 912/Kitfox choke actuating system Ben, I drilled a hole in the knob and threaded a key ring through it that I could grip with one finger. The factory also has a new set-up for the choke.

John Mcbean can point you in the right direction. Used the sealant that came with my kit (2004 vintage) with success. Better check those fuel tank fittings also.

I finally broke down and bought a tube and haven't had a leak since. The only draw back is cost. It's over a $100 for a 3 oz tube with shipping. I keep it in the refrigerator and hope it lasts. Someone on this list recommended it. I tried everything else 1st.
