Dear Listers,
Each year at the end of the List Fund Raiser, I post a message acknowledging everyone
that so generously made a Contribution to support the Lists. Its sort
of my way of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to show their appreciation
for the Lists.
Won't you take a moment and assure that your name is on that List of Contributors
(LOC)? As a number of members have pointed out over the years, the List seems
at least - if not a whole lot more - valuable as a building/flying/recreating/entertainment
tool as your typical magazine subscription!
Please take minute and assure that your name is on this year's LOC! Show others
that you appreciate the Lists. Making a Contribution to support the Lists is
fast and easy using your Credit card or Paypal on the Secure Web Site:
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
or by popping a personal check in the mail to:

I would like to thank everyone that has so generously made a Contribution thus
far in this year's List Fund Raiser! Remember that its YOUR support that keeps
these Lists going and improving! Don't forget to include a little comment about
how the Lists have helped you!
Best regards,

Just a few comments on old fuel. I have a 912UL that will use according to
Rotax, 87 oct fuel (regular car gas) I keep it in a 33 gal bowser and was us
ing
it in my engine this summer. On three occasions I had dieseling on shutdown
(enough that I did the oil purge procedure on one occasion) I called Lockwoo
d
tech and they told me that they have never heard of an engine running backwa
rd
at shutdown. I guess I was the only one in the country to have this problem.
Anyway after doing the lifter check I switched to 93 (premium)auto fuel. I n
ever
had the problem again.
I am attributing the problem to old gas and octane loss due to evaporation
.
The gas was not that old either (maybe a month) I am now back to regular aut
o
fuel and I add Stabil to it as a matter of course. In the hot summer months
I
will go back to premium fuel.
