Craig, any progress to report?
Rich,
Yes, I got word from JetCat that they experienced a similar problem in Europe that was traced to carbon fiber mounts allowing electrical contact between components of the left and right engines. Turns out that any such contact can cause a burn out in the ECU starter circuitry such as I was experiencing. I have removed my carbon fiber trays and relocated my ECU's further back in the fuselage on a plywood mount as well as seperating the fuel pumps. I had several flights last weekend with no ECU problems so this has apparently solved the problem!
I still have some issues with "accel.slo" start aborts but these appear to be related to getting the "U excel" values matched to my new component configuration. I also discovered one of my fuel pumps is weak/bad and this may have been masking/contributing to the ECU problem.
Thanks to Matt Carroll and Bob Wilcox for getting to the bottom of this problem.
Thanks also to you to Rich for your suggestions.
Craig
