Overall Great Product. The Blueprint Sheet Doesnt Explain to Well If You Are Going From A Three Post Solenoid To A Four Post. If You Had A Three Post Make Sure You Put The Ignition Wire On The Small Post On The Opposite Side Of The Aircraft Power Lug. Another Plus About This Product, It Doesnt Matter Which Side You Use For Aircraft Power, & Can Even Be Mounted Upside Down.

I believe this is a better quality starter than the one I had in my Beechcraft A35. The only issue I ran into is that the mounting holes had to be reamed because my firewall mounting is narrower than the smallest spacing on the Solenoid. I needed to gain about 1/3 inch in order to mount it. Also even though it is intuitive the instruction does not mention that the ground wire should mount to a mounting screw.

Shipped fast on time— fits— works — hope it lasts as long as original Bakelite solenoid— should order diode at same time : )

Q: How much does this Sky-Tec Starter solenoid weigh?

Without packaging, solenoid by itself weighs approx 1 lbs.The solenoid weighs 1.2 lbs with packaging.

Q: I am replacing the original starter on my 1967 Cessna 150G with a Skytec kit Kcst2. Which Skytec solenoid should I order?

For a 12V system see part number 07-03562. For a 24V system see part number 07-03563.

Q: Why is this Sky-Tec starter solenoid intermittent?

Starter solenoids / relays are intermittent, and Master solenoids / relays are continuous.

Q: What size are the terminal studs on STS-S12 starter solenoid?

5/16" on the main studs and there is a small stud that is 3/16".

Q: What is the distance between mounting holes?

2-1/4" hole center to hole center.

Q: Does this solenoid have an internal diode? The solenoid that I am replacing looks like it has a diode in the wire that goes from the S terminal to the mounting bolt.

There is no internal diode. These do not need a diode to function properly, but we always recommend hooking the new contactor up the exact way the old one was connected.

Q: What is the mount bolt torque?

Per the manufacturer: We do not have a torque spec for the mounting bolts. You would just tighten the bolts down to fully secure the unit.
