Having a similar problem with my 912. Flew for the first time this year back in March, had a very nice hour with a smooth engine. Landed, mag checks all OK, put it to bed. Went up last week, charged battery for an hour just to be sure, got in, cranked it, nothing, cranked it some more, nothing. Not a single plug fired. Went home somewhat annoyed!

Tried again today, cranked it nothing. Disconnected the mag ground leads, just in case it was a grounding problem, nothing. Not even firing once! Obviously something common to both mags but what? Fuel is getting to the carbs, chokes are both opening. A fuel problem would normally give some life, even if very rough. I’m getting zilch!

Any ideas?
