Default RE: New Jet Central Ceramic Plug

Greetings Readers:

We sent Lewis several of these new igniters to install and use at Rt. 66 Jets. As you know, "starts first time . . everytime" is what Lewis experienced.

As a result of the tremendous success of our internal igniter used in the the VT-90 Rabbit, we proceeded with the igniter for all other Jet Central Turbines. Retrofit is as simple as removing the glow plug and installing the new igniter. I.C.S. software version is necessary to determine if a change is necessary.
Please note:

I.C.S. versions earlier than 5.37 will require customers to replace the I.C.S.
I.C.S. versions between 5.37 and 5.53, will require the I.C.S. to be returned for upgrade
For versions 5.53 and later are plug and play and require only a change in the glow plug parameter.

I.C.S. version number is found on the second screen as viewed with the HDT. Menu up one screen from primary screen. Version is found in the right corner.

We will have a very limited supply of these ceramic igniters at GA. Jets "Super Jets South" next week.
For all Jet Central customers in the north (read that as cold country) we suggest you wait until your flying season ends, then do the conversion if your I.C.S. requires upgrade or replacement.

Cost of the igniter assembly is $50.00 plus shipping. If your I.C.S. requires a software upgrade, this will be done at -0- charge. You will be responsible for shipping to me and return.

This igniter assembly is available to all Jet Central Customers. Your turbine serial number will be required for verification which will be crossed referenced. Exception will be if you purchase directly from me at a jet meet which I am attending.

Please direct all questions to me at: [email protected]

Thank you,
Eric Clapp
