Re: EGT Rotax 582

Swap your leads around and if the reading moves with the change, you then know it is the probe that is faulty.
That would be your quickest route to try find the problem.

Re: the law surrounding part 96

Hi Ant ,
Zulus' comments are news to me :o
Long before the 912's they were being used on Airborne trikes vhpy
