Pete and Andy,

I have one of the first fwf kits for 3300 into Zenith 601. This is the one with the large (too large) airbox that we had to make some mods to in the linkage and fit it up under the firewall shelf. What auto airfilter is used in that box? Is there a K&N filter that those of us with that airbox can use? Any numbers? You handle it?

Second, Andy I can remember you writing in detail about the Odyssey batteries and their rather finicky ways when it comes to charging. I have a 625 that is presently on the table in the hangar, used very little because it was no improvement over the cheap 17amh batteries from Batteries.com. Is there hope for this battery (maybe too old) if I get a "correct" charger for the Odyssey line. On the old yahoojabbytalk list you once wrote of a charger that had impressed you - mind briefly repeating that?

I have the old small starter (engine 051) and starts in cold wx are fine with the usual preheat routine done in the hangar, however the beast leaves us down if we fly for food and allow it to sit too long. Am I looking at the newer, larger starter?..and how much does that run pricewise?

thanks jeff small HDS/3300 315 hours

Hi Jeff

The K&N 33-2031-2 fits in the large Jabiru air box.

As far as charging the battery I would recommend you put a 10 amp charger on it and charge it till you reach 14.9 volts on a DVM, the turn the charger off!
Don't charge it past 15 volts.

The current starters are $543.00

Jeff, Jim
I have the Odyssey PC625 on my 3300, 20aH. I was also told not to charge it above 15v charger becasue the AGM battery would be ruined. They told me to get a 3 phase charger such as any Odyssey and not a bulk charger like an automobile charger. I got the Odyssey 12Amp battery charger which tops off the battery automatically without going above 14.7v. I think this charger is great for the money (at) $85 with shipping. They have slower chargers for less but I wanted one that can do my battery while I am doing the preflight check. I called Odyssey and their technical support is great and they told me what to do.

I've used these very successfully on SVLA batteries- hook 'em up and forget about 'em:
