I will soon be putting a 912S in my Zenith 701. I am wondering what is the
best strategy for buying a new engine? Can you get discounts from
suppliers? Are there show specials at Airventure? Who has the best prices
for a new engine?
George

Hello Rotax Listers,
I am wondering how to sort through the service bulletins, etc. on the Rotax website
to find which ones are applicable to my Rotax 912ULS. I bought it in November
2004 and it's still in the crate. The serial number is 5643150.
Is there a way to search the Rotax web site and just pull information that
would be specific to engines built after my serial number?
It was a little easier to do with my old Continental engine. The AD's were
always clear as to which engines were affected. The Rotax web site doesn't appear
quite as friendly.
Any help would be appreciated. What I want to do is print out all the
Service Documents that pertain to my engine.
Thanks and Do Not Archive.

George,
I don't know if this is actually still the case or not, but, the owner of a rotax
shop in South Mississippi told me in 2004 at Sun And Fun that Zenith was selling
912's cheaper than he could. The president of Zenith in Mexico, MO (not
CH) told me that they basically sold the engine for what it cost them to buy
it. I'm sure there is some markup involved, but you can probably check it out
online by price comparisons....

George--
Rotax are pretty much fair traded with very little discounting on new
engines.
At least that is what I found when I bought mine in late 2004. The South
Mississippi
dealer was probably the best price(saved maybe 4-500 dollars) but they
wanted full payment up front. Since most all have the same price, the next
thing
I looked for was service and support. I ended up purchasing from Lockwood.
They have been responsive and helpful with questionsI've had.
Just another opinion
