Boyd ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 09:32:16 PM PST US From: "John Hauck" Subject: RE: Kolb-List: Voltage regulator Got the Ducati part number? Start searching Google for a better price than Rotax. Post it on the Kolb List and I'll help you look for one. Don't recommend using anything but an exact replacement. I am sure 912's are not the only engines out there using this reg/rec. Many years ago I replaced the Reg/Rec on my 80 hp 912 with a Key West. It didn't last from Alabama to Oshkosh that year. An example of searching for Rotax parts. Doesn't take long to go through spark plug caps. Rotax wanted 28.00 each. I got the part number off the cap, went to sparkplug.com and was able to find the exact replacement for about 6.75 each. I do the same for Rotax 25.00 oil fil. Rotax says I'll fall out of the sky if I use any other brand, especially Fram. In over 3,000.0 hours I have run 3 Rotax fils, the three that came on the three 912's I have run. I run Fram TG3614 oil fils with excellent results. Pay less than 5.00 at Wal-Mart. john h mkIII Titus, Alabama From: owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kolb-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of B Young Sent: Monday, February 06, 2017 10:56 PM Subject: Kolb-List: Voltage regulator My voltage regulator went south the other day.
