No not really! I know what you mean the 2 reed wires that loop through the black heat shrink stuff? Get a rivet and grind the shank down to make a small screw driver blade and use this inside the opened block connector to lift the little plastic lock and pull out the wire and metal connector. Don't pull too hard:Should come easy when you have the lock lifted. They just push in with a "click" Hope that all made sense. Kev : -------- Austria .............

If anyone happens to know of a source for these, even it its an automotive type could you let me know.

Perhaps this will help. Ron Parigoris Dear ROAN subscriber, Rotax has released Revised Service Instructions listed below. Within these Service Documents, changes and additions introduced with these revisions are indicated by double vertical bars on the left hand page margins. SI-912-003-R2 / 914-005-R2 Oil line connections with UNF-threads (AN-8) for Rotax Engine Type 912 and 914 (Series) A new UNF thread (AN-8) fitting with an 8 degree slope is now available. This fitting is designed to be placed at the bottom of the crank case for oil return line connection to the oil tank. This fitting allows more clearance and routing options for the connection of standard Aeroquip or Stratoflex oil lines. The fitting can be ordered as a spare part, or as an optional configuration on a new engine.
