All went well, except my VDO tach was not working. Does anyone know what the correct DIP switch settings are? I apparently had the wrong ones set in the tach, or at least that is where my trouble shooting will start. Also, I taxied around for maybe about 10 minutes. In this time the oil temp came up to about 140 degrees but I got no reading on the CHT gauge. Is this normal, or is my CHT gauge not working? It to is the standard VDO CHT gauge. I must say the Rotax 912 is a smooth running engine.

I would assume your CHT sender and gauge are still working. Yes it is a smooth engine! I find that if I very carefully balance the carbs mechanically, it will be very close to perfectly balanced when you put the guages on, and it runs very smoothly!!!
