Hello Doug.
Thank you for this info.
We will make sure that the enrichener is working accordingly.
Best regards,

Johann, check to make sure that the enrichener arms are seating correctly in the off position. I had a similar issue with my engine. Ine of the gurus from Lockwood pointed out to me that since the enrichener circuit is not a choke, it actually causes a LEAN condition at higher RPMs.

I have a friend who has been having problems with the Rotax
912 UL in
a Kitfox 3. When flying today in a temp. around 40F,
the engine ran
rough until he pulled the carb heat on. Ran very smooth and
never as
good.
What do you think could cause this problem? We measured the
carb
levels and they are very similar. 1/8 of an inch. One carb
was
definitely running bad because the EGT dropped on one
exhaust.
No carb ice and the carbs have been rebuild. Any ideas?
