I bought the plane 3 years ago. I have been told that this crankcase fretting sometimes happens in the early model engines, such as mine. I have also heard that Rotax will give consideraion during the overhaul to fix this. I am going to phone LEAF within the week and see what happens.

I can understand that fretting on the crankcase can cause oil leaking, but in your case did it cause you to not be able to turn your prop? Thx.
