\"2016-07-15_8-46-29\"<\/a>Today, Rotax released an Alert Service Bulletin (ASB) \u2013 ASB-912-069\/ ASB-914-051. Exchange of floats on ROTAX\u00ae Engine Type 912, 914 and
\n2-stroke (Series)<\/p>\n

See the table below for more details:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n

Why the ASB:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cDue to a deviation in the manufacturing process of the floats a partial separation of the
\nouter skin because of resonance vibrations during engine operation may occur. These
\nseparated particles might lead to a restriction of the jets in the carburetor. As a consequence
\nthe fuel supply to the affected cylinder bank may be reduced or blocked. Possible
\neffects are a rough engine running behavior with reduced fuel flow, up to a major power
\nloss or engine shut down with blocked fuel flow on the affected carburetor.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

What engines are in this ASB:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

All engines of Series 912 A, 912 F, 912 S and 914 F are affected, if at least one of following 3 criteria applies:<\/p>\n
