Urgent!
A club member is in desperate need of 337 forms for the Electro-air Electronic ignition system for the Frankin engines. This system replaces parts in the distributor to an up-to-date, state of the art electronic ignition system. If you have a Franklin engine with this "approved" modification, please email me a copy of your 337 form. No names will be used in this research. E-mail me at: smestler@pbtcomm.net. We know of four or five of them so far but need as many as we can get. Thank you. These are the ones we know about (initials only, you know who you are): D.J. E.H. J.P. F.C. A.P. ================================================== Member Mike Gilroy needs a prop clamp for a Hartzell HC-A3MV20-3L (Three blade) See his contact information on the Parts Wanted Page ==================================================
