There's nothing made up about "No sparks, no power" I wouldn't buy one
because of this. My club was looking at one ofr a Cherokee and decided
against it because of the lack of limp home capability.


Right.


MX has informed us of the risks associated with these electronic engine
management systems on several ocassions.


In particular regard to this installation? I have no problem with computer
governed engines, once tey aren't reliant on th ecomputer to run which
isn't the case with any other engine I know of.

I see your point and I think it's a good one. As I said before, I
smell the rat of marketing...
