I measured rates between 50 and 70 to one, and ground idle time definitely kept things more toward the 50 side of things. Indeed it was hard to get it up toward 70.

Should it use the equivalent of 50-1 (12 gallons of gas used and 32 ounces of oil) or will be it somewhat less. At idle the mark on the oil pump lever is slightly advanced from the mark on the pump which indicates it should be using more oil than normal? Is the same lever used on all engines? Seems like each displacement engine should use different amount of oil since they all use different amounts of fuel per throttle opening? Just trying to know what is right since this is the first Rotax I have used with oil injection. > > Thanks > Dennis > > -------- > Dennis Long > Oakland TN > 2000 Aeroprakt A20 Vista Cruiser > Previously Kolb Mark IIIC, 94 Firestar, 84 Ultrastar. > 700+hours since 1/1/2009 > > > Read this topic online here: > > http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=427366#427366 > > ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 11:46:27 AM PST US From: Stan Tew Subject: RotaxEngines-List: Re: RotaxEngines-List Digest: 1 Msgs - 07/26/14 I flew for over 10 years with oil injection. I just filled the reservoir at the beginning of each flight. Do this especially if you are planning a lon g trip with couple of fuel stops. Also, take a bottle with you.
