    I would replace all wires. Do not use heat shrink tubing over the wire ends at the coil. This is not heat shrink tubing and you may have issues trying to use heat shrink. This other tubing is thicker and setup to handle the electrical discharge leaks from the coils. As Dick mentioned the plug caps if needed can be found els where other than Rotax. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.

    Subject: ROTAX 914 engine oil
    I have recently begun to prepare to run the title engine for the first time. I turned to the engine oil specs to find that the one recommended is AeroSHELL Sport plus 4 - not available in Canada. I have therefore sent the following to Austria: =9CWould you be kind enough to send me a case of AeroSHELL Sport plus 4 engine oil so that, placed in my oil reservoir, I can fly to U.S.A. to buy a case of AeroSHELL Sport plus 4 oil?

    I go with the Honda HP4 10-40w. You might find that in Canada. Guy Buchanan Ramona, CA Kitfox IV-1200 / 912-S / Warp 3cs / 500 hrs. flying again. Now a glider pilot, too.

    Subject: ROTAX 914 engine oil
    I've used Shell Rotella T-6 full synthetic, and sometimes make my own semi-synthetic by mixing T-6 and Rotella dino oil 50/50, for the past several thousand hours. Never had a problem with it. Seems to suspend lead as well as the full dino recommended by Rotax. Wal-Mart sells for less than 20.00 a gal. Don't want to shock the Rotax purist, but I have also used Fram filters since my first 912 back in 1993, plus another two 912ULS engines since then. My filter of choice is the Fram TG 3614 (that's the Tough Guard filter). Only time I have flown with Rotax oil filters was the one that came with each new engine. Same for spark plug connectors. Last time I found some on line they were about 4 or 5 dollars each. Searched the part number on the connector. john h Kolb MKIII hauck's holler, Alabama From: owner-rotaxengines-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rotaxengines-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Dashwoodlock Sent: Wednesday, November 04, 2015 4:10 PM Subject: Re: RotaxEngines-List: ROTAX 914 engine oil aero shell sport plus 4 is available through arcraft spruce in brantford and rotec in britich columbia... i switch to amsole 5/ 40 or 10 /40 motercycle oil in the winter months... _____ From: Fergus Kyle <f.kyle@sympatico.ca> Sent: Wednesday, November 4, 2015 2:39 PM Subject: RotaxEngines-List: ROTAX 914 engine oil I have recently begun to prepare to run the title engine for the first time.
