I have a used Rotax 582 and Kitfox Classic IV Firewall Forward Kit for sale, for $3000. This includes:
- Rotax 582 grey-head with about 510 hours
- Firewall Forward Kit for Kitfox Classic IV
- GSC 3-bladed ground-adjustable wood prop
- Grand Rapids technology EIS, with altimeter option, and all probes
- Misc carb jets and other odds-n-ends
I purchased the engine used in 1998 with approximately 400 hours on it. It had never been overhauled. I stored the engine until 2003, when it was overhauled, and updates applied, by Lockwood. I installed it in my Kitfox IV and flew it for about a year and half, for another 110 hours. I took it out of service about one year ago and replaced it with a 912S. I was considering keeping the engine for another project, but have now decided to sell it.
The engine is in need of service. Approximately 10 hours before replacing the engine it began running rough and lost about 10% of its max power. I believe the engine experienced a cold seizure and may require overhaul (or attention from someone more adept at 2-stroke engine maintenance than I am).
The firewall forward kit includes all major components: firewall, cowl, engine mount, exhaust, cooling system, etc.
I prefer to sell all components together, but I'll sell them separately if I don't get any takers on the whole package.
