Hi there all, happy new year and good flights!
I maintain two ships (an Europa XS and of a MCR 4S) both equipped with a Rotax 912 ULS, both inherited with each their specific oil : Yacco for the Europa and Aero Shell for the MCR. Both oils listed by Rotax but I wish I could have only one supplier and only one shelf… Any advice concerning the change from oil to another one. What could be the best process?

Max,
I don't know the Yacco, but the Shell is supposed to be great. I'll be switching from Mobil to the Shell at annual time in Feb.

Aero Shell Sport Plus 4 will absolutely be a better overall choice. It was designed in the UK just for the Rotax and has a specific additive package with the 912 in mind. The other oil is just a substitute because not all oils are available every where in the world so Rotax gave owners some options, but it not a very conclusive list as they can't test all oils.

Max,
To add to what Roger said, the transition from one oil to another approved oil does not require any special process. When next oil change time comes, drain as usual, changing filter of course, and add the new oil. The residual oil left in cooler etc and new oil will mix and your engine will not notice the difference or that there is a small mix of old with new.
