Subject: | Starter Motor Earth Cable |
Has anyone seem/implemented Jabiru's JSL 005-1 about adding an earth cable from
the back of the starter body? I don't really want to add another heavyish cable
to the front end if it's not going to make much difference, so I'd welocme
the groups experience as to whether this is a change that makes any difference!
Many thanks.

I did it...I didn't NEED to do it, but I did it anyway, just to be
safe. I used 2 braided and tinned copper straps about 1/2" wide,
attached terminals on both ends, and installed. I'd never had a
starting problem before but just wanted to be sure...and I was
running out of things to fiddle with. : )

I am currently Installing a 3300 on my Kitfox 5. I just installed the
engine ground cable at that point on the starter instead of on the engine
block. My thinking is that that is where the greatest current demand
occurs. I guess I will see how that works out.

Ian,
I reported 18 months ago that the two assembly bolts which clamp and retain
the starter were getting hot. The earth return is by means of these two
bolts but they are set in Loctite and there is a voltage drop because of
high resistance.
I fitted a separate earth strap and got better performancxe from the
starter.
