aircraft-for-sale/for-saleDescription:
This is a used coil taken from a 380 hrs 503 fitted with an A-Box, which had an intermittent mis-fire problem.
The engine was taken out of the aircraft, and in my opinion the most likely reason for the mis-fire was a (permanently) high resistance metal plug-cap (>300 kOhm instead of the correct 1 kOhm). This coil, the points and the condensers were all replaced along with a re-bore and two ridiculously expensive but necessary Rotax pistons.
These coils are not cheap. What do I do with it? At my age I'm unlikely to ever need it as a spare. So is it the big round filing cabinet or do I offer it for sale?
The resistance of the coil at abt 12 C is 3.31 Ohms, and following my last bake of a shop-bought pizza the resistance when it was too hot to hold was abt 4.2 Ohms.
There was no measurable continuity between the coil and its core with a multimeter (>20 MOhms) when cold or when hot.
Sold my megger at the last boot-sale (remember those?), but on applying 500 Volts between the coil and its core (cold) there was no measurable current, see pics.
Do you feel lucky?
