FE content in oil
Hi
I have consistently been doing oil changes at 50 hrs in my 912UL engine with no problems, using Sport Plus 4 oil.
After recently running through to the Rotax 100 hr oil change interval, since I was away on an extended flying trip, my FE content has shot up.
Previous FE was running at FE94 at 1428.9 hrs but after 97.9 hrs and 1580.3 total hrs it shot up to FE301. A further 5.3 hrs another oil analysis FE88 then another oil analysis at 19.5 hrs FE146 and total hrs 1606.1 hrs at this stage.
Inspection of the oil filter with no abnormal particles visible and Mag plug not showing anything unusual. What are the limits for these FE particles?
