Electronic Ignition?
Posted: Fri Mar 01, 2013 12:03 am
Electroair has recently obtained an STC for electronic ignition on the O-200. Here's what they say about an STC for the 6 cylinder models:Wag-Aero and Aircraft Spruce sell Electroair's four cylinder ignition system for 15% less than the price listed on Electroair's website. If similar discounts are available on the 6 cylinder ignition system it would cost around $4675. They claim around one gal/hr. improvement in fuel burn for the 4 cylinder. If one could get 1 gph better with this electronic ignition it would take 827 hours to recoup the initial cost with fuel at $5.65/gal.
