    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. Ian Wilson Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=225965#225965

    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. : ) Lynn Matteson Kitfox IV Speedster, taildragger Jabiru 2200, #2062, 600.2 hrs Sensenich 62x46 Electroair direct-fire ignition system New skis done and flying On Jan 21, 2009, at 5:15 AM, ianwilson2 wrote: > <ianwilson2@hotmail.com> > > Has anyone seem/implemented Jabiru's JSL 005-1 about adding an > earth cable from the back of the starter body?

    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.
