Am currently running a 912s which has from new, used approx 0.1 ltr of oil
per hour, resulting in a very sooty exhaust, and 2 relatively sooty plugs,
although not execessive, front right being worse, with a hint of oily deposit.
The
engine is now 43 hours old, and seems fine in every other respect and is
running good t's and p's. Am being advised to monitor the engine as it could be
still bedding in from new, but am slightly concerned as the situation does'nt
appear to be getting better, and it seems like a very unusual problem, most
using virtually no oil. Oil and filter was changed at 25 hrs and carbs balanced
twice. Just wondering if anybody else out there has come across this, or has any
theories. Thanks, Chris, mono 912s.
