I was excited to install a brand-new Speedmaster electric starter handle/switch assy onto my original (31 year-old) Sullivan Dynatron starter unit. The starter unit was in good condition- so I thought. It was last used back in 1989, and operated just fine, and had been stored in my garage ever since. However upon further inspection I noticed the aluminum cone was noticeably crooked, and wobbly when rotated. I thought maybe it was not properly secured on the output shaft. So I removed the aluminum cone and noticed that the output shaft itself was bent. I figured the starter must have been dropped at some moment in time. What a pisser. I contacted Sullivan, they are sending me a replacement motor assy ($52.71 USD).
By-the-way, I run nitro motors ranging from 3.5cc to 13.00cc (.21ci to .81ci). I thought maybe I could get away using a new Sullivan Hi-Tork model starter, but figured it be best to be safe. I use a 24V set-up (dual 12v, 5A gel-cell's).
