lucky enough to have an AD... They call them Service Bulletins."
The FAA does indeed issue AD's on Rotax type certified engines, there just aren't that many out there. Most are in TC'd motorgliders. I have a certified 912s in my Super Ximango. I bought my Ximango in '07 and there have been 3 AD's on the engine since, only one of which applied to my engine and it was a minor inspection. The only difference between the Rotax TC'd engines and the non-TC'd engines is paperwork. Otherwise, they are identical. The SB's apply to all engines within the notated serial number range provided with the SB. Overall, the 912s has been a pretty good engine, provided you keep the carbs balanced. They actually do a pretty good job of documenting issues, provided you can read and understand cryptic Austrian....

You got that right!
I'll take a Jabiru Engine before a Rat-Tax anyday.
Buy a Rat-Tax and join the "AD of the Month Club" - Whoops! They are not
lucky enough to have an AD... They call them Service Bulletins.
Service is something you should NOT expect from a Rat-Tax engine.

Subject: Nulon L90 grease
Looking for a reasonable source to ship to USA address, Nulon L90 grease.
Jabiru seems very proud of this product. Super Lube brand High Temperature
Extreme Pressure Grease seems to be to my inexperienced eye very similar,
but it is $40 plus shipping and I am not confident it is equal. Any
feedback would be appreciated.

James:
EP Grease is available for all sorts of applications. The MSDS from NULON
is not acceptable for import into the USA but if you read the
Product Bulletin you will find it is polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) base.
That means it is a TEFLON base. Better than teflon for lubrication would
be a Marine Grease with Moly (*Molybdaenum*) Disulfide. Matter of FACT
there is NO other DryLube that can stand up to it or has the lowest
coefficient of friction. The suggestion for Marine Grease is stand up to
all levels of moisture. An expensive moly grease would cost $7 for a 14 oz
tube; $12 if purchased at a marine store.
