With the newest Line maint. manual and the SB on TBO's gearbox times were changed. So here it is. If you have a 912UL (80 hp) and no slipper clutch, which is most of them, then the gearbox inspection is 600 hrs. on either fuel. If you have a 912 ULS (100 HP) with a slipper clutch, which is most of them, then it is 600 hrs when you use 100LL more than 30% of the time and 1000 hrs if you have used unleaded auto fuel more than 70% of the time. The older times you used to see of 400 hrs and 800 hrs are gone. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az. Light Sport Repairman - Maintenance Rated Rotax Repair Center - Heavy Maint.

At 600 hours on my 912 UL I did have my gearbox examined by an approved Rotax shop. They listened to the engine, pulled and examined the magnetic plug and used a borescope to check the gears and the shimming of the gearbox and said that it seemed just fine.

The rational behind the 912UL 600 hr. is that it doesn't have a slipper clutch and they have found issues sometimes. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.
