Can anyone point me to where I can obtain a suitable service manual for
this engine please. Also any relevant information regarding upgrading from 1200 to 1385cc would be of interest. I understand Mahle barel/pistons kits are available that simply fit onto the existing block and heads. Pros - Cons? Cheers Adrian RF4D G-AWGN |

To clarify
My understanding is that the Rectimo AR1200 engine is essentially a Type1 vw engine modified to single magneto ignition. more info on VW engines modified for aviation applications can be found here http://home.adelphia.net/~aeroengine/VW.html Adrian "Adrian Hatton" wrote in message ...
