ROTAX 912 S Overhaul cost and oil changes

Postby GR8-DAD » Thu Apr 26, 2007 7:31 am

Can you guys please help me out quickly:

a. What can I estimate as major overhaul cost on my 912 S after 1400 hrs? In todays currency please, considering a new 912S will cost R140k.

b. Can't find my manual, every how many hours should the oil be drained and replaced?

Thanx

I spoke to Gideon at Aviation Engines 011 948 8205

A zero-hour overhaul at 1500hours is R60-R70K. This equates to about R40 to R46 per hour

Oil replacement in the first 100 hours at 25, 50 and 100, thereafter every 100
