Bingo. Right on target. The biggest being the ignition, one for each side. You can tell he is a retrained conventional engined guy who was caught by surprise of how good an engine it really is.Now lets see who else can get it. You should post your answer on the group after a while. You caught one thing more than I did, the one about the two in one.Gary O.

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).
