Cooling fluid:
Cooling fluid in accordance with the Rotax Engine Operation Manual has to be
selected.
Attention: different coolants cannot be mixed! If in doubt, drain the complete
coolant content and replace completely with new coolant of one type.
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.
Warning:
When using AVGAS particular attention must be paid to type of oil used. For details refer
to the valid version of the ROTAX engine manual.
