Heavenbound Aviation is an authorized "independant Rotax Repair Centre" for Leading Edge Airfoils serving all of Ohio. I am an ASE certified gasoline and diesel technician by trade, as well as being Rotax factory trained and certified in their two stoke line of engines, and I personally do all of the Rotax repairs myself. I do all types of repairs, inspections, and overhauls of all Rotax two stroke engines. Currently I do not work on the four stroke models.  The basic rate for a rebuild of any air-cooled two stroke Rotax is $350 labor, and $450 for liquid cooled models if the engine is not locked up or requiring special work of some kind.  Gearbox removal inspection and reassembly is an additional 1.5 hrs. If the prop shaft requires removal, that is extra, but that is not normally necessary. If the engine is locked up, extra labor may apply. The standard labor rate is $45 hr. All Rotax parts will be priced at current retail price. All engines overhauled to Rotax specs will carry a 90 day, 100 hour warranty. This covers parts and labor of any defect in parts or workmanship. This warranty is limited to the engine and Heavenbound Aviation assumes no responsibility for any other damage or injury caused by an engine failure. In some cases engines may be reassembled with parts that are out of spec, BUT ONLY if the owner of the engine is aware of the situation and makes the decision to do that, but the warranty may not apply if the parts that do not meet Rotax specs cause a failure. For example, Rotax recommends replacing the crankshaft at 300 hrs. Since a crankshaft for a 582 now costs $1400, and crankshaft failure is so rare, many people choose to run them longer. Please be advised that if you choose to fly a Rotax engine that is out of spec, you do so at your own risk. In any case, once an engine is taken apart and all parts inspected and measured, the owner will be contacted with an explanation of what needs done, and pricing.  Prior to reassembly, most parts will be bead blasted with plastic media and thoroughly cleaned with solvent. OIL: :  Unless otherwise requested all engines will be assembled with Penzoil aircooled 2 stroke oil. If you would prefer the engine to be assembled with a different oil, please send a pint of that oil with the engine. It is recommended to run the engine only on the oil it is assembled with. Penzoil is a mineral based oil and generally speaking any mineral oil should be compatible with it. However, if you intend to run on synthetic oil, compatibility with mineral oils may be an issue, and mixing them should be avoided.  Often I am asked what oil should be used in a Rotax.  In my experience I have seen high time engines come through my shop for teardown using several different oils.  Of those I can honestly say that there are three that I feel comfortable recommending.  Penzoil air cooled, (water cooled can be substitued with nearly identical performance, but air cooled is prefered) Blue Max, and Amzoil.  One caution I will say with Amzoil or other synthetics, they may not protect against corrosion as well as mineral based oils. When the engine is in use regularly this is of little concern, but if your engine will be inactive for any length of time, it should be fogged and sealed up to prevent internal damage and possible failure due to corrosion on the crankshaft and cylinders. SHIPPING: If you plan to ship your engine, please do not use UPS. They have a habit of destroying engines and not paying for them even when insured.   No matter if it falls out of a truck on the freeway at 60 mph and get runover by the next ten trucks, they will claim it was not packaged properly.  I always ship engines in a wood crate.  Fed Ex has done well for me so far.
