Fuel stains, exhaust bolts.

[Baker Dino FMC <Dino.Baker@health.sa.gov.au>]

Hello All,

Thanks for the response to my query on fuel stains. As Jerry requested, Auto
Super in Australia is leaded 97 Octane ( we hope ). The Rotax instructions
as usual are vague on the use of Auto super leaded. Most stress being put on
not using LL which has more lead than our Auto super.

Any clarification welcomed.

Exhaust nuts that I received with the engine are steel self locking, not
brass and have not loosened in 60hrs.

The rear exhaust support is a good idea. I used a piece of conveyor belt,
1.25ins wide, joined to a strap of metal around the muffler. So far it is
working well.

Looks like some fun ahead with the tailplane torque tube :-)
