It's time to change pistons after 380 hours; the cylinders are ok, but the pistons are 0.004 under spec. Rotax factory pistons for the 532 are no longer available, and none of the dealers have any stock. So I was wondering if anyone has used overhaul piston sets from non-Rotax sources. I would appreciate hearing about anyone's experience with them. -------- Mike Perkins EAA TC/FA Havana, Illinois Model I, 532, B gearbox, GSC prop Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=377495#377495 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 09:29:23 AM PST US From: Malcolm Brubaker Subject: Re: Kitfox-List: Rotax 532 replacement pistons I have a nice 532 W/ stock pistons you may buy-- w/ lots of spare parts here in michigan- call nay time-- mal=0A=0A=0AMalcolm & Jeanne Bruba ker =0AMichigan Sport Pilot Repair =0Ahttp://michigansportpilotrepair.com/ =0ALSRM-A, PPC, WS=0AGreat Sails - Sailmaker =0Afor Ultralight & Light Spo rt=0A(989)513-3022 =0A- =0A=0A=0A=0A =0A=0A______________________________ __=0A From: mikeperkins =0ATo: kitfox-list@matronics. com =0ASent: Saturday, July 7, 2012 10:01 AM=0ASubject: Kitfox-List: Rotax ins" =0A=0ADoes anyone have any experience with after -market pistons for the Rotax 532?
