    I know that you have flown most everywhere in this country in your Drifter with the Rotax 503 and would be interested in knowing why you switched from your trusty Rotax 503 to the 582? With all of your flying experience, your reasons for the change and experiences with the Rotax 582 would be most interesting.

    Have you checked with the shops that rent mopeds in Lahaina? They probably know of a good substitute. McMaster Carr has it under part number 7568A43<http://www.mcmaster.com/#7568A43> .

    Henry, Most likely it is a Europe only product. To find the best substitute I suggest you call Permatex and get a hold of an application engineer. That person will give you the story, but the best thing is you will get a professional recomendation for available product. I have done this for several Permatex products and have greaat result. Get the contact info off their web site. Always very helpful.

    Subject: 503 vs. 582 (was: Questions about radiator & duct tape
    on a 582) I haven't abandoned the 503 - yet I do have a 582. The 503 is on my Drifter, which I thought I would sell to buy a Talon. (The Talon is a 3rd generation Drifter - think Drifter on steroids, but not as pumped up as the AirCam.) I bought a Talon with a 532. I have always heard negative things about the 532, so when I was offered a used greyhead 582 with to replace it, I jumped at the chance. I thought about putting my trusty 503 in the Talon, but it would have been slightly underpowered. And I've decided not to sell my Drifter, so I didn't want to cannibalize it. I got a greyhead 582, and sent it to Lockwood for a complete makeover...new crank, pistons, etc. They also machined the case and put in a silicon seal in place of the steel one to ensure that if the O-ring fails there won't be any mixing of oil and water. (Just like in the bluehead 582s.) I've got about 100 hrs. on the refurbished 582 and it's working very well...haven't had any problems at all so far. I thought about flying my Drifter to Oshkosh - that's what I'd prefer to do, because the Drifter is more fun to fly than the Talon. (The Talon is "better" in almost every way - speed, stability, responsiveness, comfort, but because it has a windshield - not much, but it's there - you don't feel the wind at all and it's just not as much fun. ) I decided to take the Talon, though, because I'll be flying back with a fellow who's flying a Titan, and the Drifter's cruise of 60 mph vs. the Talon's cruise of 80-85 mph means he won't be waiting on me as much. He'll still be waiting (he cruises @ 100-115 mph) but no where near as much.

    Hi Henry, Here are a few substitutes. You are allowed to sub Loctite 518 Red or Loctite 5910 for Loctite 574 orange. These are also used to seal the gearbox on the Rotax 912. You can use Permatex "The Right Stuff" which is basically the same as Loctite 5910. These last two do a much better job and that is why you see people getting away from the others. They are both a heavy black paste that are used for sealing gearboxes and transmissions in high vibration areas. When put side by side you can't tell the difference. Loctite and Permatex are the same company now. Permatex "The Right Stuff" can be found at most automotive stores and comes in a small pressurized can i.e. a small whip cream can. This little bit will go a long ways. Clean both surfaces with a scotch brite pad and wipe with some lacquerer thinner or acetone. Smear a thin film on both surfaces and then put them together. Do not over apply this and goop it on. This is one place less is more. What ever little squishes out is ok in or out so long as it was a tiny bit and will go through the system, but not if you slather it on and have huge clumps floating around of any of these sealants it isn't good. I have never had a leak using Loctite 5910 or Permatex The Right Stuff. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.

    A number of years ago I overhauled my 503. Iused loctite 515. I am sure thats what the book said to use at that time. I do still have some and have used it on many 2 cycle crank cases . Good stuff I do remember when I puchased it I thought it was on the expensive side but it has stood the test of time. If you wish I can see if 575 is available and at what price.
