I'm confused about information we received from ECI on the AD for the
standard cast cylinders. We have a set of ECI cylinders that have 1
hour of dyno time on them and were pulled off the customer's engine.
The cylinders originally cost us $951 each for a total of $5,706. Now
ECI is saying they will give us a 40% discount on new Titan assemblies
which means we will have to pay an additional $544.80 per cylinder
assembly. That means I'll have $8974.80 in a set of six cylinders that
would only cost me $5448 to begin with. There's no way! Has anyone out
there received similar communications from ECI?

Rhonda,

The discount is 60% for any cylinders under 800 hrs. plus a pro-rated
labor amount that can be deducted from the cylinder cost. Say you have 4
steel Classic Case cylinders that are affected with 800 hrs, the total
cost for 4 complete assemblies, all new parts would be $1,216. That's
$304.00 each. For cylinders with O time or just dyno time, ECi will
replace them with new Titan cylinders at not charge at all.

Details on identification of affected cylinders can be found on the ECi
service bulletin # MSB 05-8 posted at eci2fly.com under technical
reference materials.

Kind Regards,
Jim Ball

Thanks for the clarification. It's the exact opposite of a written
response I have from Joe in your warranty department. I do appreciate
the response.
