Want to remove Rotax 582 autolube

Postby Induna » Thu May 05, 2016 1:11 pm

Hi there

I have a 582 mod 99 and want to remove the autolube to rather premix the fuel/oil (i dont trust autolubes). I know I then have to use a mesh type fuel filter to accommodate the oil in the fuel.

What will be required to do the removal properly and blank off any ports etc necessary? I have done this once, but was a while ago.

Can anyone give me a price for the parts required please as well as the procedure for doping this properly?

Regards

Hi Induna,

Go and talk with Johan at saldaha. He will be able to help. I might add that the autolube system is dodgy if there is no oil in the tank. For the other occasions, they are pretty trust worthy.
