I use one of these on my 912ULS

I think dynamic balancers are now down around $1500 from a couple of suppliers.

On our 914 the oil hose from the sump to the tank is close to the muffler for several
inches. At least one Europa had that hose melt and rupture. We are using
teflon lined SS hose enclosed in Thermo Shield with no problems in 200 hours.
Has anyone got any experience using wrap on the muffler to help the life of this
hose? We're a little concerned about the effects of wrapping just one surface
of the muffler - would there be stress on the skin of the muffler where the
wrap ends?
Have similar concerns about wrapping the pipes. Since they need to be unwrapped
around the EGT connections and where they group and go into the turbo, does
that cause stress?

Thanks for the info Doug.
We still have a "vibration " at cruise rpm that I am trying to chase down
on this Paradise we have been working on It went away after a gearbox
reshim/respring but now is back. We are just finishing up a different prop
installation to see if that helps with the issue (owner wanted to do this,not my
idea)
I have checked all the cables,swivlenuts ,etc in the carbs but will no
another recheck. Sync is spot on.
I now have the prop balancer so will check that out on the Warp we are
removing. (as well as the internals)

Doug,
Glad to hear you got the rotax running smooth now.
When do you think you will get in the air?
I am starting a Kitfox SS7 next week, so have left the Zenith world. Going with
a continental on this one, but would swap it for a Rotax.
Take care,

Hi All,
All hoses of oil and fuel should have the fire sleeve on it. The ends should be
dip coated with "End Dip" and have a band clamp as per ASTM standards. The fire
sleeve not only protects it from fire, but does a pretty fair job of insulating
it from radiant heat off things like the muffler. Where you have a coolant
line close to something hot or where it might rub take a piece of fire sleeve
and cut it down the middle lengthwise and wrap it at the problem location and
use either a couple of wire ties or safety wire to hold it in place.

I must be in another world. I googled Rotax, got "The sky is the limit" and
that sent me to another URL but what happened to the Parts manuals? Am I no
longer worthy of service or must I join and pay for them now?
Any advice particularly welcome........

Hi Dick
"We still have a "vibration " at cruise rpm
that I am trying to chase down"
I remember hearing from a 912
guy who worked on Katanas that if you don't get the large washer on the
crankshaftthat holds gearbox on centeredit can cause
viabration.
Probably worth considering to have dynamic balance, make
absolute sure prop blades are tracking and are at same pitch before.
