| Subject: | New pattern oil filter |
Anyone know how to get oil in to the new pattern (i.e. with anti
backflow
valve) 912 oil filter before screwing it on to the engine?
Otherwise the engine takes a massive gulp or air on start-up.
In fact, oil pressure comes up in about 15 seconds (to just above the
minimum pressure specified, a further two minutes to get anywhere near
to
its normal pressure and nearly 1 hours running to stabilise back to
where it
always sits.
All because the filter can't be primed.

Keep in mind that Seafoam contains alcohol. Other products such as Sta-bil
do not.

The new style filters that have been out for a couple of years can not be
pre-filled like the old style because of the check valve. The anti drain back
membrane has nothing to do wit it. You should rotate the prop 20-30 times (this
is in the maint. manual and old service bulletin) with the spark plugs in place
and that will help facilitate pre-filling the oil filter. Rotax has determined
that that small amount of air during the oil change is not detrimental.

SeaFoam is exactly what it is - A foamy conglomeration of nothing.
It does nothing.
It is worth 10 times nothing.
And there ain't no mechanics in a can.
A fool and their money will so be parted.
