Default RE: JetCat Start Problem

airkiller,

Thanks for trying to help. If you read my posts you'll see that the turbine is setup correctly and runs absolutely fine once it starts so there are no fundamental issues with batteries, solenoids being plugged in the wrong port etc.

All Jetcats I've ever have owned 'click' the start valve on-off-on-off during the start sequence.

The cause is 99.9% simply a tighter valve not turning fast enough to push the kero through. I've upped the start pump voltage to 2.75v from 2v so I'll try a start and report back.

EDIT: I mean 0.275 from 0.200

Rgds,
Mark
