Rotax 912 carb heat
Good morning.
I am in the process of completing a Kitfox series five with a rotax 80 hp.
In Canada carb heat is mandatory. Three options present themselves...electric...using waste heat from coolent or rotax's airbox.
I am leaning towards the electric option because of its compact size...I am told that it draws 6 amps and it may overload the stock alternator. Anyone out the use this method??
I dont think i have room for the airbox and i would have to modify my drip pans to fit the "hot water" option...not.to mention the extra piping required which would also add to the complexity of servicing the carbs....
Any comments/advice/help would be appreciated....
Thanks,
Adam (happy series 5 owner)
