    I talked to Bill Holmes at the Rotax booth while at Oshkosh this year. He told me the Pennzoil Marine XLF is the exact formula as the Pennzoil we were using before they stooped making it. It can be bought at any automotive or large outlets. Can be mixed with the old Pennzoil as it is the same.

    I used the Stewart System on N844RS, very user friendly. I also stapled my ribs with divergent SS staples. Goto to their site and download the CD,
    it's a great help. Russ.

    Truth be known the dealer made a mistake and built it with full v-nose. Only gave me 20' long I.D. He rebuilt to 23' I.D square nose with a corner closet space. The other truth is I get away from the Fat Bastard for 6 months.
    Thanks for the corner closet idea Doug. See you in April

    If you are using the Westac #2AT8A-2-6, there is a yellow wire on the back that needs to be cut if reading about 3 time actual rpm.

    Those are the ones Joey. I had to grind a little on the ID of clamps to make a good fit. Other than that no problems. Good luck. Russ.

    Bungee instalition
    HI all,
    Just installing the bungees on the MK IV with the new WIB gear from Airdale. I have the bungees wrapped 8 turns and understand that the safety cable goes on the tabs over the bungees. What I can't see from the drawing, R-3 in my manual is where the large rubber bands are placed.
    Any advice from the PROS. Thanks Russ. N844RS.
