Subject: | Re: Garmin G3X installation |
If the battery voltage drops down to 22 volts or less, the starting coil ma
y not generate an adequate spark.
The starting coil is probably one of the most reliable electrical component
s on the airplane.=C2-=C2- The starting coil wire (7mm) from the starti
ng coil to the left magneto cap may be deteriorated and cracked.=C2- If t
he wire is cracked, it will arc to the braided shield (ground) when you pre
ss the start button.=C2- That would prevent the spark from going to the m
ag cap and then to the spark plug.
After you replace the batteries, open up the starting coil container and ch
eck the points for mounding.=C2- If necessary you can burnish the points
to remove any mounds with a point file.

Absolutely agree and the cold weather just makes it more difficult.
Especially if the battery voltage is low.

We make a solid-state version that we run any voltage. It was aimed at the homebuilders
who want to use a 12 V system
