    OK - Someone HELP! I write tech reports for a living but this statement is totally confusing: 1.5 COMPLIANCE NONE - For Information Only. Then they follow it up with a NOTE: WARNING - Non-compliance with these instructions could result in engine damage, personal injury or death! Come on ROTAX make up your mind! Ya gots ta under.

    Went flying this past Friday and the rough running 912UL was back in the mid range (4400-4800rpm) . Not real rough but noticeable to me. I have had this problem in the past (see beginning of this thread). Note that the rough running occurred at the same time of year in the past when the air here gets cold (40 F or below). The engine is in sync. Do you folks think a change in needle to richen the mixture a bit is the answer? Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=322365#322365

    You said the engine is in sync? So you pneumatically synced the carbs? Mechanical doesn't really mean a lot. It is only a starting point. There are some people who do have a slight rough spot down around 4000-4400 when throttling back in the pattern. That may be normal, but it shouldn't be around the 4600 and above. What is your mag drop on each ignition and at what rpm are you doing the mag drop? If it was a blade out from the others it will usually have a roughness throughout all rpms. What is your WOT rpm flat and level? While were are at it, when you sync the carbs pneumatically that means they should be right on equal vacuum and not just close. If you can get them close them you can get them right on. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.

    Hello Goodone. This is exactly the same thing my friend has been experiencing on his Kitfox. His cure was to change the needle jet to the next larger size or from 2,72 to 2.80. Solved his problem but as Roger Lee has pointed out, this could just be a part of the problem, but the temps are normal in the mid range after the change. Hope this helps, Johann G.
