| Subject: | Re: [Pulsar-Aviators] 912 oil |
Initially I ran with Castrol GPS until the formulation was changed that
then caused it to foam.
Since then I have run the Aero Sport 4 oil along with the genuine Rotax
filter.
The engine and airframe each have 2250 hours.
I change both filter and oil every 100 hours.
There have been zero maintenance issues except for a replaced sprag
clutch at 1000 hours as I had the early starter that didn't like to wind
the engine at speed for starting. I also fitted a Bully Hawk soft start
at the same time.
I run 2% Power Up in the oil. I know Rotax say no additives but I
believe this is mostly from a safety perspective in that they don't know
what you might put in the engine. Power Up suggest that you should
expect to get 3 - 4 times engine manufactures TBO. I don't plan to take
the engine out until at least 4000 hours. It doesn't use more than
250cc of oil in the 100 change period. My 912 was a 1500 hour TBO engine.
I have run 91 mogas since new with only 4 or five occasions where I have
had to add a little 100LL to the mix.
