Anticept Posted July 30, 2016 Report Posted July 30, 2016 Just finished the first installation on a CTLS. I have one other that is getting it too. These engines were installed after the old ones hit TBO, but it wasn't until earlier this year that I found out that both of those engines shipped with the new modules and flywheels but the wiring for the modules was never installed. I was NOT the one that hung these engines. Here's a short demo!
opticsguy Posted August 1, 2016 Report Posted August 1, 2016 Mine tries to shake itself apart before the normal timing begins. This sounds really smooth in comparison.
Anticept Posted August 1, 2016 Author Report Posted August 1, 2016 It sounds a lot different in person. Phone mic isn't very good. Still, you have me curious. New or old flywheel?
FastEddieB Posted August 1, 2016 Report Posted August 1, 2016 My Sky Arrow is about like Corey's example - the roughness is rather subtle for 3-5 seconds. Original flywheel, circa 2007. I don't think "trying to shake itself apart" is normal, and should probably be investigated. BTW, thanks for the video, Corey!
opticsguy Posted August 1, 2016 Report Posted August 1, 2016 It was better before I got the soft start modules. I had the ones that died in hot weather.
Anticept Posted August 1, 2016 Author Report Posted August 1, 2016 It will shake a bit until it switches timing. It sounds terrible but that's expected, especially if the RPM is really low (this one goes down to ~1100 at idle while starting with retarded timing). I'm curious where your threshold of "too much" is at. Can you do a recording?
