    Re: rev limiter wiring

    your limiter should have come with destructions

    but if it didnt its `easy

    first remove the aei unit
    second remove the coil from the aei
    third were the coil connects to the aei cut away at the plastik so that the wires from the limmiter can be pluged in

    Re: rev limiter wiring

    as or when you pull the coil away from the aei youl see two connecting posts (round)(yes they are marked pos an neg) carfully cut awy the plastick on the aei so that you can get the lim connectors to slip on from the out side.

    cant be a**** to do pickys as i have propper man flue

    Re: rev limiter wiring

    set it to 9k, but try and avoid hitting it...

    mine is set to 7k, but i rarely hit it as it doesn't make much power after 6500 anyways

    just make sure your wiring is sturdy an up to the job, the live wire fell off my limiter, you can guess what happened next! had a bit of a play with a starlett gtt didnt watch the rev counter, one bent valve, cracked guide, fubared piston! gutted took me two full 12 hour days of hard graft and a few quid thanks to some **** wiring!
