New starting system

OK, you saw it here first...
Walbro has a new easy starting system for magneto engines works only with primer bulb carbs so far...It's new, will be available on all carbs in the future...You wanna see it, go to the walbro aftermarket website and SEARCH..
This information has been checked with Luis Salas, Walbro engineer...Maybe he's a NOOB too ?

Thanks Bikman
If someone is having excessive difficulty starting their gas engine time and time again, maybe they should stop running gas engines

Solenoid actuated pump replacing the diaphram pump?

That's what it looks like... But it doesn't seem like the greatest idea to me because that would rob some power from the spark.

Same train of thought that said man would never reach the moon,
You seriously think Walbro engineers haven't done research on this ?
Magnetos put out WAY more spark than what is needed for coumbustion....
I asked Luis Salas about this, he confirmed the system but said it does work but "don't ask me any technical questions about it"...

My engine guru here in Flagstaff is working on it for our Wreckless Racing planes, it WILL happen...Take a ride over here someday, you can get some of Jan's cookies and see a REAL engine shop...
I don't know about having TWO Ralph's in the same house...

Hmm, I can see it before me: Ralph in the good ol' rocking chair mumbling semi-understandable directions while Jan works up a good sweat.
