Safe for ALL TCM starter adaptors!
The new CxxST3 starter has been redesigned from the ground-up to achieve incomparable, aggressive design goals:
Incredibly low weight (only 6.5 lbs!);
Aggressive gear reduction for high torque w/low current draw;
A patent-pending, common-sense design that eliminates the majority of "broken spring" scenarios that occur so frequently on TCM's new "improved style" (their quotes, not ours) starter adaptors;
Nearly instantaneous release of the starter adaptor wrap spring virtually eliminates starter-induced adaptor wear;
Approved and recommended for ALL starter adaptors ("classic style", "improved style", "permold", "sand cast", etc.);
A simple, easy-to-install, bolt-off/bolt-on, maintenance-free starter that fits the entire "large" series Continental engines (with right-angle starter adapters) from O-300-D through TSIO-550 engines;
Highest torque possible with minimal current draw (you're going to LOVE how it cranks those Continental-powered Cessna's with the battery way in the back!);
Attractively designed and affordably produced making it the first and only choice in lightweight large Teledyne Continental engine starters.
How is the Sky-Tec starter different?
The ST3 starter incorporates an innovative clutching system which enables the starter to engage the TCM starter adaptor while powered and completely disengage the powerful permanent magnet motor while the starter is unpowered. This positive disengagement allows the TCM starter adaptor to fully unwrap under all normal operating conditions thus greatly prolonging starter adaptor life.
How do I know which one to buy?
This one is pretty easy! If your TCM engine has a right-angle starter adaptor at the rear of the engine, chances are this starter is the right one for your application. Consult our extensive aircraft fit guide just to be sure.
