 |
|
Thought I'd try for an answer here...
I am installing a 912s on my Kitfox IV. I have placed the 4 braces on the top and bottom of the engine. The intake manifold is off as is the starter. I am still having a fight with the water pump being in the way. Has anyone dealt with this b-4 and did you have to take the water pump off? I sure hate breaking that seal. Wondering if I'm just not holding my mouth right :>)
thanks in advance,
Dan B / Mesa, AZ

Dan,
I don't know how much this will help you with a 912S & Kitfox IV, but you are welcome to look the the engine mounting I with through for my Europa and 914. It is covered in my Europa build gallery, Albums: Year 5 Q3 though Year 6 Q3. Perhaps there's something in the design of the Europa engine mount to Rotax ring mount that will do some good. You might also try the Europa web site ( http://www.europa-aircraft.co.uk/ ) under their Builders Assistance > Builders Manuals > 912 XS Jul 09 (Rotax 912 Installation) for more hints.
Good luck,
Bob Borger
