  • Page 22 2.2 Engine ROTAX 912 ULS engine 73.5 [kW] (98.6 [hp]) is installed in SportCruiser. Rotax 912 ULS is a 4-stroke, 4 cylinder, horizontally opposed, spark ignition engine with one central camshaft-push-rod-OHV. Liquid cooled cylinder heads, ram air cooled cylinders. Dry sump forced lubrication. Dual contactless capacitor discharge ignition.

  • Page 23: Electrical System

    Throttle and Choke Engine power is controlled by means of the THROTTLE lever with the CHOKE lever which are positioned in the middle channel between the seats side by side. Both levers are mechanically connected (by cable) to the flap on the carburetors. Springs are added to the throttle push rods to ensure that the engine will go to full power if the linkages fail.
