Hi Bob,
I cruise about 5000-5100 in my Zenith 701, I now have a little over 200 hours on
the engine and just finished the annual in early January. The engine inspection
revealed no wear and everything checked within required/recommended tolerances.
I also fly a Remos G3 and normally cruise at 4800-4900 unless at altitude
(above 8,000'). It has about 275 hours on it. Since it is not my aircraft
I have not performed any detailed inspections, but is smooth and seems perfect.
Both of these engines are 912S.

Bob,
I fly regularly on aircraft with 912 and 912S engines and always run
them between 5000 and 5200 rpm and they seem to like it. Also have some
time (150hrs) on a 914 turbo engine with a constant speed prop and that
too ran on 5000 with no problems at all.

When I start this engine cold... I put on the chock and push the primer 3
times. The Engine starts and cuts out. After 3 time or so, the engine will
stay running. Hot... the engine starts the first time and stays running.
Any one know what causes this?
Thanks

If you have a Bing carb your enricher (choke) may not be supplying enough
fuel to keep it running. Short term solution would be to leave the choke off
& simply give it a shot of primer when it starts to slow down until it runs
without it. Works for me -)
