Just replaced my old Bendix Starting Vibrator with a new electronic Magneto Booster. All I can say is WOW! If you have had starting difficulties like I have...had. Don't even give it a second thought. Get it. I think it started on one crank. Maybe less.

As the weather is getting hotter, I am finding it more and more difficult to restart the IO-360 after even short flights. I have had the plane for two years. This is the second summer. I thought I had a good sequence worked out for a hot start.... as it has worked since we purchased the plane. Throttle indent first notch Push the mixture in all the way Wait a Second..... Pull mixture to lean Start Push mixture to rich. Fire Throttle to idle In my mind, I was breaking the vapor lock by the push and return on the mixture. Anyway......... That worked very well for several hot restarts.... until now. I cannot get this engine to fire after its hot. I have tried the POM suggestions along with forcing a flood start. She will not fire until the engine is cooled off. (warm). Engine is in time. Mags have less than 100 hours Any input would be appreciated. Rick
