Great product, a joy to start the plane now.

Great replacement

quality product

Amazing starter, makes the old starter look pathetic when it was working, hot starts are no longer a issue as this starter turns the engine over so fast it has no option other than to start. Fantastic shipping time from aircraft spruce, was shipped 2 hours after ordered, and delivered into South Africa in 6 days.

Always a great product.

This starter NEW was less than a refurbished starter + core charge + shipping. Made sense to me! Being installed by my mechanic now. This company is easy to work with and shipping is quick and trackable.

This thing is amazing. With my new starter and battery, I can almost taxi on electric power, not gas. :o)

With the old Prestolite starter one could always see the blades go by with the SkyTec, despite the fact that I still have a braided strap on the positive terminal, the blades are a blur. Add to that the fact that it is half the weight of the Prestolite and you have a starter that will leave you tickled pink.

Great step up from the original starter.

Fits perfectly, lighter, easer to install. You will need to find approximately three inches slack on the power wire to reach the lug, as it is not in the same place as an OE starter. Works like a champ. Great price.

This starter is unbelievable, worth every dime! Turns my 300hp O540 three times as fast as standard starter , should have bought this years ago !

Excellent service from Aircraft spruce !

Great starter and great service

Arrived on schedule as promised. Great starter so far. Installed last week. Pleasure doing business with Aircraft Spruce.

Starter arrived quickly and just as ordered.

Great product, works well and priced fair.

Works Great. Lighter than old one.

arrived sooner than I expected, very happy about that. Well packed and protected.

I replaced my Kelly starter with this new Sky-Tec 149-NL starter (PA28R-180) and what an improvement in cranking speed. Bravo, and I saved ~ 6 pounds to boot. Thing is that the +B lead will need to be extended ~ 1.5 in. in order to connect to the new starter. In my case, I had enough slack in the starter wiring so this was not a problem.

Just put it on O320 h2ad. So far so good. Just read the warning that is attached to starter so you dont burn it up. It has a sticker that you attach inside the plane. Warn all other pilots to observe this. Also its light weight is awesome. Mechanic did have to cut shroud on right side (from pilot seat) but it Left a gap on left side of shroud due to smaller size than the original. He said we need to attach flexible material to seal it. Also had to pull electric wire that goes to starter forward to reach bolt. we had enough slack but if yours is already tight that may be an issue but one easily fixed. F.y.i. I have only started it 4 times so far. God bless.

Plug and play...works great. Seems to spin a lot faster using same low CCA battery. Pleased so far.

My only issue with the starter is that it did not fit onto my lyc 0-360 correctly --- the starter gear was too close to my ring gear. I tightened up the mounting bolts to be sure, yet still too close. Although my motor had been rebuilt (possible reason for the issue... I dont know), apparently Sky-Tek (Lyc) would not accept the return because of mounting marks on the starter. So if you buy one, check the fit closely without making any marks on the starter mounting plate, or youre stuck with it...
