Refer to the Rotax 912ULS Operators manual. Or
AVGAS 100 LL.
* Coolant temperature is monitored via the cylinder head temperature which is measured at the measuring point of the
hottest cylinder
Warning:
Due to its high lead content AVGAS has a detrimental effect on valve
seating and causes greater deposition in the combustion chamber. It
should thus only be used if fuel vapor or octane problems arise or if
MOGAS is not available.
