Slipper clutch date's

    2002 is the year built. I was able to get the pin out by hand so I know im good there. I just did not feel comfortable with the it was going. Without a clutch would this make it seem to start harder. There are few other 100hp on the feild and they start butter smooth. Mine still starter then I would like.

    These things make engines harder to start than others:

    Low battery,
    Too small a wire from the battery and or starter solenoid,
    Old style starter,
    Poor carb sync and or old carbs that could use a rebuild,
    Poor idle and throttle use at start,
    Primer verses choke (enricher),
    Plug gaps and or old plugs,
    Dirty air filter,
    heavy a prop verses a light composite prop


    Ask yourself about each of these.
    The lack of the gearbox clutch shouldn't make it any harder to start.

    I have a ROTAX ULS 100HP, Serial Number 5,650.397, Engine Build Date: Dec 10, 2007 - I am assuming that since it is after 2002 I have a Slipper Clutch.

    If you live in the US, yes you should. Right around 2003 the 912ULS eng. brought into the US had them installed.
