Your suggestions are all in line with my thinking - namely, that I have a grounding problem somewhere in the ignition system. Will begin investigating, and reply back when I discover the exact cause. This List is great - just the kind of input I was hoping for!

Dennis Kirby Dennis K/Gang: Many years ago I was flying my MKIII, 912UL powered, to Florida, at night (don't do it any more). Had to relieve myself somewhere in Alabama or Georgia. Nearest airport, landed, but could only shut down one side of the ignition. Further investigation determined a broken ground wire on one side of the ignition box. However, it was not a visible break, but the wire strands had corroded inside the insulation to the point they failed. Had about a 1/2 inch of copper to work with, but was able to solder a wire to that stub and save the ign module. john h mkIII ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message kolb-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Kolb-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/kolb-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/kolb-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
