These are also its disadvantage but thats a debate for another Thread. not that it helps skippys predicament - No predicament just hoping to benefit from some one else's experince/recommendation. i would have thought a quality synthetic motor cycle oil would be more than suitable for a 912. Again this is a hot topic that has been discussed many times - in short Rotax previously recommended several oils (mainly of the motorcycle type) that are still used by some, to good effect. In resent times Rotax have limited their recommendation to Aeroshell Sport Plus 4 & their in house product XPS, a full synthetic oil (initially developed for a heat issue, with certain engines, that can tolerate/suspend high lead content) 😈
