Fun questions to stimulate and educate for the 912 engine.
If you don't know these that's perfectly ok and the answers are in the Rotax maintenance, Parts, Installation, and Operators manuals.
I’ll post the answers in a few days and if you get a correct answer before then I’ll let you know. If you happen to know them all just answer a few and leave a few for some of the other members.
Don’t be bashful this can be fun and we will all learn something.
The most important thing is to have a little FUN!
