Question for the group. Bringing Baby Blue out of retirement and will
be changing the oil. Been using a 10-40 blend and would like to switch
to a full synthetic. Is there any reason to not do this in the 912S?
Thanks in advance.

Jeff,

We have been using AeroShell Sport Plus 4 for many years. We like that Rotax endorses it and that the formula can't be changed without Rotax approval.

Sport 4 also has sufficient ZZDP (anti scuff agent) in it; many automotive (including motorcycle stuff) equivalents don't, because those would contaminate exhaust catalysts.

Jeff,

I forgot to mention, I purchase it from
https://oil-store.com/product/aeroshell-sport-plus-4-case-12-1-liter/

They seem to have the best price.

Hi Jeff Full synthetic is not recommended if you use 100LL a lot. Semi synthetic AeroShell Sport Plus 4 is a good choice: https://www.shell.com/business-customers/aviation/aeroshell/piston-engine-oil/sports-plus4.html Ron P.

Thanks all for the recommendations.
