|
|
Hi all, I`m about to fire up a newly overhualed 582 w/oil injection. With everything set up PER rotax sevice manual, when I crank the engine with the electric starter, but with no gas available, shouldn`t I get some oil movement in the lines between the oil injector & the engine crankcase where the oil line attaches to engine? I`m hesitant to put gas in & run the engine with no visible oil movement while cranking at different throttle settings. Everything else ablout the installation looks great & "by the book". Thanks, Jim Kmet

Jim:
Put 5 gals of 50 to 1 fuel/oil mix for the first run. I think that is
in the installation manual somewhere. You can do a search for it on
the Kodiak web page.
I think that is what I did for start up and break in of my 582 in
1992. Some of the current 582 guys should be able to give you better
info.

No, you won't see any visible movement. Just ensure there are no bubbles in the lines after about 5 gallons of premix. The 582 pump is very reliable in my opinion.

Not hardly.
1 part in 50 ain't much, especially at cranking speeds.

I don't remember now how I did it, but in addition to using the 50:1 premix, but somehow I reached back across the wing from the front side and pulled the oil pump cable while the engine was running at part throttle. If you kick the oil pump up to max, within a short time it will suck all the air bubbles out, and the noticable increase in oil smoke tells you that the pump is doing it's thing.
