We are still having tremendous problems getting HI started in the cold.
We've replaced the battery but the engine still shakes violently when
cranked and seems to run in whats been described as 'sub idle' before we
execute a somewhat rapid shut down.
Once it has started, it runs very nicely - never missing a beat and it
starts very well indeed when warm - on the button every time.
Trawling the archive gives me the very strong impression that our sprag
clutch is due for the bin but I'd rathter get someone familiar with Rotax
starting problems before changing such an expensive part (or getting it done
more like!) and finding out that its one of the carbs!
Can anyone tell me - is it possible to remove the starter without taking the
engine out in a 912 classic?
Conrad seems to be pretty well booked up at present - has anyone used Adrian
Lloyd? If so (and he is any good) - does anyone have a contact number for
him (or anyone else that can be recommended).
Really need to get this sorted before the starter or engine frame quits.
Thanks in anticipation
Peter
