    Subject: Oil in Turbo on 914
    Looking for some advice. My 914 hasn't been run for about 18 months. Oil has been collecting in the bottom of the turbo. I have the hose between the turbo and intercooler disconnected and I can suck up oil with paper towels in that opening. After about 2 months, the oil leaks back in. Any suggestions on what could be causing this? And can I run the engine with the turbo to intercooler to intake disconnected? I'm assuming it would just run like a 912 but not sure. I would only do that for testing. Thanks, Brad Europa XS with Rotax 914

    You should clean and blow out each line with oil to the turbo. If the check valve sticks which is probably what is happening with oil in the turbo it just needs cleaning. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.
