Hi All
Just a quick question.
Is it possible to get the engine oil contaminated with engine coolant,
This is possible on a car engine via a leaky gasket,
But as the Rotax cylinder heads are the only part of the engine the has coolant going round it.
So as the cylinders are air cooled ,the joint between cylinder and head has no water ways so are two separately cooled units..
It may be possible via a cracked cylinder head,? but in this case what other tell tell signs would appear.

Back at the water pump housing area is possible, but rare.
