This situation is due to an incomplete combustion of a poor quality oil.
Clean residue accumulation in combustion chamber and replace piston(s). Use
Bombardier Rotax oil.
b. Spark plug heat range is too high.
Install recommended spark plug(s) (refer to TECHNICAL DATA 10).
c. Ignition timing is too advanced.
Adjust according to specifications (refer to TECHNICAL DATA 10).

Adjust drive pulley according to specifications (refer to TECHNICAL DATA 10)
and/or clean pulley sheaves if they are contaminated with greasy particles.
SYMPTOM
PISTON RING AND CYLINDER SURFACES ARE GROOVED.
CONDITION
