Hi "miami_guy"
Download Maintenance Manual 912 Series (Line Maintenance) :
http://www.rotax-aircraft-engines.com/a_searchdoc.aspx
Read 5.2 Oil change and you will read "Draining suction line,
cooler........must be avoided".
If the oiltank has been open and cleaned you may have allowed air in the
system and need "purg" or prime the system with
pressure.
Have to dash. My Europa XS/912S is waiting.......
Regards
Stephan

I would have the engine striped and inspected and send the bill to the A&P.
The A & P should have never worked on your aircraft without reading the
correct engine manual.

A valid point... And to take it a bit further he shouldn't have gone near
the engine without first having at least a basic course on it.
