Oil tank

      Hi All,
      
      I have a 912 uls that has cracked the 1000 hours, and have noticed a change in
      the way the oil lies in the scavenger tank. An oil check after shut down  registers
      the level well below the lower limit marker. If I hand turn the prop (40
      turns ) the oil level will come back up, although I don't seem to be able to
      get it to "gurgle" anymore. If it is left without starting up after winding the
      oil out of the tank by hand turning prop, it will stay at that level till next
      flight. Oil pressure seems to be the same, about 2.5 indicated, and still is
      up at 4 at startup, so that seems fine. Logically it suggests the scavenger
      system is not operating satisfactorily, but I don't know how it works. Question
      is has anyone had this issue, and is it serious!
      
      cheers
      
      Geoff Bell
