Thread: wish for a fuel injected 912

It would probably run more smoothly, more efficiently and compensate for altitude more accurrately. WF

you will have to go ''experimental''

Saw one of these at the French Blois airshow looked a very nice designed kit the only problem was at around £2500 plus fitting you would have to do a lot of hours to benefit from the fuel economy

Hi Mike

Economy would be only a small part of the equation. No more carb ice 'probability'. Less parts . Less ajustments needed. High altitude/mixture problems ..no more
and ...if you resell all the expensive parts removed..then It's not 'that' costly.
BMW removed the same Bing carbs for injection a long while ago on their motorcycles
The 'early' US drones using the 912 are fuel injected -
I saw some ''injection researching'' on a 912 some 13 years ago.. ..so... ah...maybe one day...

I have a customer installing this system =Rans S-7 w/ULS= I'm eager to see it run ..next summer

You only have to hold your horses until 2012.

What happens in 2012?

Here are a couple other fuel injection options:
