Noel,
The heat transfer paste is used in the 912 as per the manual and
Lockwoods Rotax school. I don't know about its use in the two strokes as I have
not
attended class on them yet but will shortly. Lowell has a compelling
argument about mfg.'s recommendations on using other products in their engines.
I
think there is a lot of validity there, however, I don't think Rotax would
have much to gain thru the sale of spark plug paste. I for one will continue
using the heat transfer silicon they specified in my 912 course but then
again I also use Rotax oil filters.
After seeing first hand some of the results of using "unapproved" products
on these engines (i.e.: destroyed engines) during my course, I have elected
to use what they say to use. The price is cheap enough for me considering
how much this engine costs ! (although the oil filters are getting mighty
sporty ! )
