Hello all,
Sold my Firestar last July, wish I hadn’t, but with one Taylorcraft flying and another in recovery I didn’t need my own Air Farce...
That being said, I always appreciated the knowledge base here. I know some folks have flown Hirth powerplants on their Kolbs. My brother picked up a Challenger with a Kolb 2703 on it...great compression, no spark though. it has the dual electronic ignition. Pulled the flywheel and cleaned things up. I am not familiar with the electronic ignition module/coils on the Hirth...wish it was a Rotax.
So...I do know they had igntion problems. The modules/coils have been airframe mounted instead of engine-mounted, which is good. Anybody know the proper procedure for testing these things without buggering them? Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated too!
Thanks much,
Stumpy, recovering Kolb jockey
