What are the other engines are you using? My friends and I are always looking for an alternate for the 503. Hirth seems to be prone to breakage, and MZ is still pretty new, although their hp's look good. I spec'd out Simonin, and found it would take about 7450 Euro's ($11K, American), will get you 102 or 110hp, at about 6200rpm, but it is watercooled, and I like aircooled.

Kess,
I used to use CUA101 when it was available. It was repackaged Optimol 100:1 marketed especially for ultralight pilots. Optimol is still available through some mower shops. You may have to Google it to find a supplier.
At work we use Amsoil Saber 100:1. We don't run Rotax engines, but we fly many hours without problems on another brand 2 cycle engine.

Thanks Guy,
What brand do you use? I saw a premium 2-stroke oil available through a propellor supplier, but didn't notice the ratio.
I like the idea of a clean engine.

Try running a good 100:1 oil and premix it 100:1. I did that for a long time- less oil to buy, clean engine.

The oil injection helps with the carbon buildup as it reduces the oil to about 70:1 at idle. With premix you have 50:1 all the time so the engine will coke up a little faster.
