Hello
I can buy a Rotax 912 A2 who has 423 hr in 12 years.
The engine has always been run on avgas.
Can i switch without problems to Mogas because on my airfield there is no avgas available ?
Thank You
Eric hendriks

Hi Eric,
Absolutely you can change and it will be for the better. If you are going to buy a 12 yr. old engine just peruse through the SB's for Rotax and make sure your up to date.

Eric,
In addition to the good info Roger gave you ,you might want to clean out all the lead residue in the oil tank. It will be spread thru out the engine/gearbox internals but at least you can clean the oil tank/screen.

Hello
Thank You guys for your quick answers.
the engine is always been used in a certified aircraft so I think all the mod must have been done.
