I have Lockwood's oil thermostat installed in my 912ULS. Rotax recommends
long sweep ells when using a oil thermostat to prevent oil restriction.
Lockwood offers the long sweep ells as an adaptor and an ell. Does anyone
know a source for a long sweep ell without needing an adaptor? The specs
would be 1/2 NPT x 1/2" barb brass long sweep ell.
Thanks!

I am installing Westach 712-4D6K bayonet style probes and would like to kno
w
the proper torque value for these 8mm bushings. Does anyone know of any
reference where I can find this value?
Thanks for your inputs. Here's what I've been able to find out. Both Phil
Lockwood and Mike from Rotech Research advised that there is no Rotax spec
for this. Phil said to "snug" it but not too tight. He also suggested usi
ng a
high temp nickel or zinc based anti-seize compound. Mike suggested torquin
g
it to standard torque value for 6mm fasteners (one size smaller than the 8m
m
bushings) which is around 90 to 100 in-lbs.
