| Subject: | Rotax 912 Preheating |
Hello Group.
There is an article in this month's EAA Bits and Pieces for Canada about
preheating engines. It mentions the temps that trigger preheating for
Continentals and Lycomings. I have not been able to find sugesstions for
the Rotax 912. Does anyone know what the temperature would have to dip
to require a preheat for the Rotax 912 ? Thanks.
Regards,
Damien Graham

Damien:
Pre-heating is a function of FREEZING which starts at either 0 C or 32 F.
It is NOT a function of Manufacture. So unless ROTAX uses a different
freezing point - - - Kelvin maybe - - - Start Pre-heating at the freezing
point.
Pre-heating is also helpful when it comes to PLASTICS. Many a knob and
gear have become loose or broken when the temps drop. Personally - I begin
to function slower as the temps get lower, so it is just as important to me
to be Pre-Heated.

Please explain what the freezing point of water has to do with when to
preheat an engine that is cooled with a combination of antifreeze and air.
