I wish I could come. Not a very good turnout. Where I
keep my Pulsar we are having a fly in for the blackberry
festival on Aug 31. I plan to try to get a few Pulsars to
come but have been waiting so as not to affect anyone that
may come to your party. Hope you get a lot more to sign
up.

On my 912S, I use the Rotax filter and Mobil 1 4T 10w40 oil. I usually have
to get the local O'Reilly to order me in a case.

Subject: [Pulsar-Aviators] Rotax 912 UL, which Oil Filter you are using
Hi,
I had yesterday conversation with Czeck Sport Cruiser (Rotax 912 ULS) pilot.
One topic we had was maintenance and which oil filters we are using. I was
for Fram 3416 and he was for Rotax Oil Filter. He explained that Rotax
dealer told not to use any other ones.
So ones again, which filters and oil you are using on your Rotax 912 UL or
ULS engines?
I am using Fram 3614 and Mobil 1 20W50 V-Twin motorcycle oil.

| Subject: | Another nose gear failure |
We have another nose gear failure, this one caught by the owner, during an
inspection. In this case, the weld on the back side of the collar had
cracked. Fortunately, this was caught before the nose gear fell off.
This is the forth failure I know about in the last two years in the United
States. I have talked with Alan Gill in the UK and he says they had 4
=93 5
failures and have started modifying the gears to a sleeve and bolt concept
.
The issue is that the majority of spindle failures have been inside the
collar thus an inspection may not reveal the failure until it happens. If
a
total failure occurs it can cause considerable damage to the aircraft,
imagine landing your plane with the front wheel and fork missing.
It is difficult to say what is causing the failures but if you are loading
the nose gear, an example is 582 flown with full header tank or all 912
=99s,
where the nose gear weight is high, or using non hard surface runways,
then the nose gear is carrying a lot of weight.
In any event, given the crack found today on a 912 aircraft that has been
in service for a while, it is safe to say that all nose gears should be
carefully inspected for cracks in the weld area and also check the spindle
to
assure it is straight. If bent or a crack has formed, the gear needs
immediate attention. Since the collar may hide a fatigue crack in the spin
dle,
even these inspections may not reveal a problem.
We have two engineers in our group that are working on a simple fix,
similar to that used in the UK. They should have it completed this week. W
hen
the details are worked out, the repair will be offered to the group. Drawi
ngs
will be provided and if desired, they can provide a complete repair.
Be safe,
Greg
