| Subject: | Oil pressure issues |
--> RotaxEngines-List message posted by: "george may" <gfmjr_20@hotmail.com>
Hi Folks--
I'm looking for some ideas as to why I'm seeing intermittent hi oil
pressure on my 912uls. Itis installed on a Zodiac 601XL and currently in
initial flight testing with about 5 hours on it. Everything was fine for
the first 3.5 hours. Current symptoms are that on start up and take off
everything is in the green at about 55-66psi. Once I reach altitude and
try to reduce throttle the oil pressure goes intermittently to the red at
78-98psi. If I throttle back up the pressure goes back to the green.
Returning to the field and after landing the pressure is again in the red.
Thanks for any ideas
George

Hi all,
A long time ago Rotax issued SB-912-15 which referred to a need to replace
rocker shafts and rockers at 600hrs, on some old engines. It allowed you to
inspect at 200 & 400hr but to replace at 600 hrs.
I had thought that some time later an amended instruction had been issued
that allowed the 200hrs checks to be continued ad infinitum requiring
replacement only if there was a problem.
Can anyone cast any light on the whereabouts of this later instruction (if
it exists)
Pete Jeffers

hi George
what kind of oil filter are you using? and have you checked your oil
pressure with a different kind of gage(mechanical type) verses electric
sender type?. some times bypass in non rotax filter drags a little and
causes this.

| Subject: | Matronics Email List Fund Raiser - November! |
--> RotaxEngines-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com>
Dear Listers,
Each November I hold a PBS-like fund raiser to support the continued operation
and upgrade of the List services at Matronics. It's through these sole Contributions
of List members that these Matronics Lists are possible.
You have probably noticed that there are no banner ads or pop-up windows on any of the Matronics Lists or related web sites such as the Forums site ( http://forums.matronics.com ), Wiki site ( http://wiki.matronics.com ), or other related pages such as the List Search Engine ( http://www.matornics.com/search ), List Browse ( http://www.matornics.com/listbrowse ), etc. This is because I believe in a List experience that is completely about the sport we all enjoy - namely Airplanes and not about annoying advertisments.
During the month of November I will be sending out List messages every few days
reminding everyone that the Fund Raiser is underway. Each message will generally
highlight a particular feature or benefit of the Matronics Lists or detail
a new feature or service that was added this year. I ask for your patience
and understanding during the Fund Raiser and throughout these regular messages.
The Fund Raiser is only financial support mechanism I have to pay all of the
bills associated with running these lists.
Once again, this year I've got a terrific line up of free gifts to go along with
the various Contribution levels. Most all of these gifts have been provided
by some of the vary members and vendors that you'll find on Matronics Lists and
have been either donated or provided at substantially discounted rates.
This year, these generous people include Bob Nuckolls of the AeroElectric Connection (http://www.aeroelectric.com/), Paul Besing of Aeroware Enterprises aka Kitlog Pro (http://www.kitlog.com/), Andy Gold of the Builder's Bookstore (http://www.buildersbooks.com/), and Jon Croke of HomebuiltHELP (http://www.homebuilthelp.com/).
These are extremely generous guys and I encourage you to visit their respective
web sites. Each one offers a unique and very useful aviation-related product
line. I would like publicly to thank Bob, Paul, Andy, and Jon for their generous
support of the Lists again this year!!
You can make your List Contribution using any one of three secure methods this
year including using a credit card, PayPal, or by personal check. All three methods
afford you the opportunity to select one of this year's free gifts with
a qualifying Contribution amount!!
To make your Contribution, please visit the secure site below:
https://www.matronics.com/contribution
I would like to thank everyone in advance for their generous financial AND moral
support over the years. I know it sounds a little cliche, but you guys really
do feel like family.
Thank you for your support!
