Kolbers I have a question about a rotax 377. Has any of you ever installed
fan cooling on a free air 377. I own the free air and am told thatn the rea
r cylinder will overheat on a KOL;B.If you have I wonder how much trouble i
t is are there as lot of small parts or can on just bolt on the fan drive a
nd the shrouds without much trouble?I thionk I am going to buy anothrer who
le fandrive 377 so I get all tyhe parts I can buy an entire 377 on ebay for
about $200 and if I go to l\LOCKWOOD or anyone selling new parts it wioll
cost thousands over dollars for the parts. my next question is what about e
lectric start the electric starters for snomobile377s cost $50 to $75 and t
he electric start for ultralight377s cost $400 to $600 what is that about I
m sure snomobilers abuse their machines much more than we do I would love t
o have electric start but not at that price .Thanks for the help Chris=0A

I have a 503 on my Firestar II, and do not have a fan...belt kept breaking.
.."one-less-thang". Temps are great, but front cylinder tends to run cooler
at cruise. Avoid power-off dives and just ease down with a little power. O
ne hot day at the airport I had to idle there waiting for a plane to move,
and I was worried it might overheat...it didn't. =0A=0AOn Monday, April 7,

it won't work on a Kolb. If the shroud directs air to the front cylinder,
why not the rear? Both have equal access to the incoming stream. The intake
is offset to the side of the cylinders and creates an intake plenum. Shoot
, my Hirth was in worse shape, having to direct the front cylinder air over
the rear cylinder before exhausting and didn't have a problem. Your bird,
