The hose coming off the front of my Rotax has become kinked at the loop-a-round. I thought this was a coolant hose and contributing to CTS sounding the alarm. Engine never gets hot, plenty of oil, no debris at gate. Alarm goes off when I throttle down. But I followed the hose and it loops around, to port side, connects to flange at bottom of the air silencer box! Hose is marked "heater hose." Confused.
