Ok, lets pool our observations. Mine:

(1) He indicates that the 912 had a "bad reputation". I don't believe that's true at all. Yes, its true non Rotax people were probably "afraid" of the engine. Maybe that's what he means

(2) When he gets in to the discussion of the carbs, he also mentions the "independent ignition systems control the left and right bank" of the engine (as opposed to top/bottom)

(3) I'm not comfortable with the "two carbs in one" statement, where he talks about the "staring carb" (choke).
