In a separate thread I've outlined my troubleshooting trials and tribs of my LSE Plasma I EI, which has ended in the need for replacement.
In researching options, if I stay with an EI, I'm looking into upgrading to the LSE Plasma III, or changing to the Electroair system (formerly known as the Jeff Rose EI).
I'm looking for, and would really appreciate, comparitive feedback from VAF comrades that have used or are using either the LSE Plasma II/III EI (especially with the direct crank sensor), and/or the Electroair/Jeff Rose EI system. Performance, reliability, ease of installation/servicing, and customer service/support are the metrics I'm most interested in, but all feedback is welcome. Request no public mfgr bashing, though honest positive or negative feedback (couched appropriately) is appreciated (I'm hoping this is deemed appropriate by the forum mods, and just want to keep it above-board, per DR's forum guidelines).
Especially valuable would be feedback from those that have experience with both systems, but all info is really welcome, to add to my ongoing research.
I've noted some differences in the two systems, such as LSE's capacitance discharge versus EA's direct fire spark system. Each uses different plugs and wires, and EA's system can use auto or aircraft plugs/wires. The timing sensors are quite different, and at this point in my research, the EA sensor seems like a more straight forward install, and it appears timing is adjustable more easily in the field on the EA system. However, it appears that there are more LSE systems in the field (unscientific observation).
So please, hit me with your experience, and feel free to also contact me via PM or e-mail at [email protected]. Thanks very much, in advance!
Cheers,
Bob
