(in order to activate aeromot downloads, you apparently need  to go to
the bottom of this page and click on
" Service Bulletins Available On Line PDF Files (Adobe Acrobat Reader).
Click here for download."
it's strange, but it you need to go through that additional step to get
the download to work.)

it's curious that you can't get the correct sender from Aeromot.

however, aren't oil sendets also available through California Power
Systems or another Rotax service center? it's a westberg gage, right?
