My customer could not be happier with the starter.

SKY-TEC STARTER 12V 149-NL

This is the best replacement for the old Bendix or the Sky - Tec permanent magnet starter.

It came. It fits. It works. I just wish I had known the new star washers ARE included. Ive got a few baggies of washers n bolts now that I dont really need.... ordered some to be sure we were covered. Add the included info to the product description for the next guy, please.

SKY-TEC STARTER 12V 149-NL

A great starter, has made my old girl feel like new aircraft with the way it turn over and starts now- I would recommend this over reconditioning an older starter unit on aircraft from an earlier era

SKY-TEC STARTER 12V 122-NL

we use sky-tec for decades with good performance with all the starter models used on our aircraft. top of the line starter.

Fit perfect. Alot more power, really could not believe how much better it is than stock starter.

I had this starter overnighted it came quickly and on time. The part was exactly what I needed, when I needed it. I am continually satisfied with Aircraft Spruce parts and service.

Works as it should

The starter works great, faster hot starts.

Had quick reaction time, well packaged, and arrived when predicted.

Great starter. It turns over almost fast enough the fly the plane. Starting is now a breeze, even hot starts.

Well packaged, easy to install, and runs great.

I received it in 2 days. Went on easy and worked great. Only had it on my plane for little over week. But so far so good.

fast delivery, works perfectly

Has breathed new life into our 0-320-E2D on our C-172M! Old starter was tired so this upgrade was needed. Very pleased!

I put this starter on my Piper Pacer knowing full well that Id have to modify the forward oil cooler bracket, Installation was straight forward, and the bracket was easy to modify. The thing cranks the engine over like crazy, weighs 8 LBS less than the original Delco-Remy, and allows me to blank off the hole in the nose bowl for the original starter.....whats not to like about this? My 2 cents....Just buy one and install it..........

I installed this starter on my Lycoming IO-360 engine at the recommendation of my mechanic and I have to admit it is amazing. I was getting so tired of having a hard time starting especially when the eng. is hot. This starter rotates engine so fast and effortlessly making starting so much easier. I highly recommend it.

Easy to swap out after getting the air box out of the way on a Mooney.

Lighter, more powerful, easier to install. Fantastic product.

The starter works great, spins the engine over much more quickly than the old factory starter. I rate this as a 5 star product, but it must last as well. We will see.

Great starter. My 172N is much happier with this than its old starter. New weight and balance too. This is right about 10 pounds lighter. Even sounds slick when cranking her up!

PERFECT FIT, VERY GOOD APPEARANCE. I INSTALLED IN lYCOMING 0.320 WITH AROUND 1200 hS END IT CRANKS THE ENGINE MUCH FASTER THAN THE ORIGYNAL DELCO STARTINGS ARE BETTER AND MORE POSITIVE TOTAL SATISFACTION

Came the next day, did the trick. Fast starter!

Excellent product spins prop faster and lighter weight. Beats the old prestolight starter hands down. Would recommend to anyone that needs to replace their starter buy the SkyTec starter

Works amazingly well at a much lower weight then the old Prestolight starter

If you have an old style starter, this is a Must Have upgrade. The blades turn fast. A great Hot Start improvement on Lyc IO-360 A true OMG !!!!

This starter is excellent and at least half the weight of the original. All of my replacement starters will be Sky-Tec

I have installed and used many starters over the years. This SkyTec starter is the best I have used. It cranks even the high compression Lycomings through on the first attempt and is faster than the original old heavy units, slower than the first gen SkyTec units. I have not had any fail yet either which I can't say for the older SkyTec, Prestolite and Lamar units.

Nice light weight starter but did not fit a SuperCub with stock forward oil cooler. Pos stud contacted the oil cooler bracket. Pos cable would have to be rerouted to make up for the extra distance to connect. Poor planning for a direct replacement part.

Great starter but my mechanic said that installation is a real problem without an STC. He finally authorized the installation under the Vintage clause only because my Comanche is pre 1980. He says that the FAA-PMA doesnt authorize him to install the starter on the aircraft. Frustrating!!!

In commercial use they cannot and will not hold up to more than 350-400 hours of in use time. The drive body separates from the motor through chaffing in the assy hardware. Poor build design though good for starts. Many SDR already submitted.
