Hi Guys,
If you qualify for the new extended 2000 TBO then you should replace these three items and make sure yo get it in your logbook. Only 2 are required, but it would be crazy not to do all three since they are all integrated. It takes about 10 minutes. Even if you don't qualify I would very highly recommend these part changes. It does make a difference that have have seen in all the aircraft so far. It will either steady the pressure and or raise it. They do a better job of controlling the oil pressure over the old ball bearing, spring and cap screw.
For me personally this is a must do whether you have a 1990 or a 2009 Rotax 912.
You should use all three new parts.
cap screw 841-983 about $32- $35
spring 838-122 about $8
regulator cone 857-230 about $30- $33
Lockwood, CPS or Leading Edge should have them.

I have the mid 90's Rotax you are talking about. Everything is old. I would suppose you have to do the purge if you replace these items Roger ? (ie" you are breaking the oil system)
I would like to do this.

Hi Dick,
No purge is necessary. Just unscrew the old cap screw and drop out the old spring and ball bearing and push the other 3 new parts in and secure. Takes ten minutes from start to finish including the safety wire on the cap screw. For once in our lives it really is a piece of cake.
This is a highly recommended and fairly cheap upgrade.
