"Bob - The Rotax manual says 3 liters. 3 quarts is close enough which
on a normal oil change (not draining the cooler) but draining the
crankcase will put the oil level roughly mid-way between the min-max
lines on the dipstick. This being the case it appears that 3 liters
would put it right at the max line. Thom in Buffalo"
Hey, team,
The niceties of language need reviewing here as we are from
different corners of the globe. The U.S. decided to change the size (in
volume) of the 'Imperial' quart, and so they have the U.S. quart which is
smaller. It IS about the size of the litre (of which they have changed only
the spelling).
So it behooves us victims to consider the results of a
international mail system when sending technical data. Thus wheels may be
either tri- or mono-, quantities suitably spec'd and wing builds either foam
or whatever.
Otherwise we are going to get keen builders trying to stuff big quarts into
little pipes.......?
Cheers,
Ferg Kyle

| Subject: | Stabil or Fuel Fresh |
I am wondering if anyone has experience or data on using gas
stabilizers. I use Fuel Fresh every time I add autogas. I have about
100 hours on the engine. I have not seen any short-term adverse
effects. I am wondering about the long term effects if any. I don't
really know what I am adding to keep the gas from becoming "sludge".
