The SlickStart works well but they seem to have a variable life. My first one lasted 8 years but my second only 10 months. I will review again after the warranty claim.

I have been having hot start issues from day 1 since installing a new Lycoming IO360M1B in my RV-7A. I tried every start procedure imaginable. It killed a starter and two batteries. The airplane was completely unreliable once you tried a hot start. After installing the Slick Start the engine starts on the third blade, hot or cold! Great product. I wish I had installed it sooner. Now my engine starts like it is supposed to.

Rocks !! This came on the Comp Air 6 (w/ IO-540) I bought. Id heard they were good but this is amazing. All I do is touch the starter and the engines is running hot or cold.

I had terrible hot starting problems on my O-235 if I went to a fly in somewhere for a couple hours. Couldnt figure out why, it just did not want to start again after I stopped at an event. Ran the battery down every single time and usually got stranded a lot longer than I wanted to be there. I Dreaded going anywhere that I would have to start again in the same day. Put the slick start on, easy install, BAM starts every single time!!!. I seriously could not believe it. Painless starting now whenever I want. Very happy camper!

Night to Day difference in Hot starting my Arrow IIs IO-360 engine. An absolute must for injected engines that are stubborn to start. (Even better when coupled with a newer, light weight, high torque starter)

I dont normally go around and advertise / promote random products, but as I was stuck at KBAZ a few weeks ago with starting issues that resulted in killing the battery, buying a new battery & spending several hours resolving the issue. I found this advertisement. (Caught my eye via the Bruce Bohannon) endorsement. Long story longer, it works as advertised. I made the investment and it works. It starts every time, hot / cold etc. If you have Hot Start issues. This will solve the problem. It took about and hour to install and is literally a life saver in regards to starting the beast. Good luck with hot starts & safe flying. Darrell 112AD RV7 IO390-X

PA28R-201 with the wonderful io360. PIA to start under any conditions. Great IA/AP friends tried everything literally over a couple years. NOTHING. In desperation, tried SlickStart or would give away the plane. OMG! 2-3 blades and going... cold, hot, flooded, summer, winter, whatever... 2-3 blades and going.... you can too! 30 minute install and simple.

I always hated to go for the 100 dollar burger. Not cause I hated to spend the money. But my plane might start hot or not. Everyone else would be running and leaving and there I would be cranking hoping the battery wouldn't go dead before it started. I got the slick start mag booster. OMG instant start. Hot-cold-wet-dry doesn't matter two blades and it running.

I have a 2015 Cessna 182T with an injected Lycoming 540. Over the course of a weekend my engine became impossible to start, so I had both mags replaced and fine wire plugs installed, and while the cowling was off I asked my mechanic to install one of these. The engine starts better than it did when it was new. Usually 2nd or 3rd blade after being parked in a 45 degree hangar. Havenâ??t had the opportunity to try a hot start on a hot day with it. After thorough research and experience with this product my opinion is that itâ??s not a substitute for proper magneto maintenance and the only spark plugs anyone should ever use in an airplane engine are tempest fine wires, but it does seem to make the engine easier to start and more forgiving with regard to under prime and over prime, so as far as Iâ??m concerned a good purchase and if it prevents me from being stuck some place or burning out the starter or destroying the battery even one time itâ??s worth the money by far.

Itâ??s really 4.5 stars because the instructions were a little tricky since we were installing the 002 model on a Bendix mag. We figured it out and confirmed with a quick call to tech support. Now the stubborn IO360A1A starts within a couple blades hot or cold. Highly recommended along with fine wire plugs as well.
