We have managed to resurrect a 12L stad air starter, at brunty however it is missing the fuel control unit, anyone know of any spares. The engine runs up on the starter. We hope to try and get it running properly for use at the open days and to assist with running the vixen, as it is a little easier to move around
Just as info it’s the air transportable type, and if you check out the video of the RB211 running in someones back yard they are using both types, the 12L being the one with no cover on

cheers milt for looking, it was only decided to resurect it when we found that we can’t get a decent air delivery pressure out of any of the 3 DT has, keep your eyes peeled. As i said it looks easier to move the L around

Yes, that’s probably the combined HP bypass and shuttle valve unit, with a 3 pin plug on the “L” series. It bolts to the chassis floor. The “H” has seperate valves and a different internal pipe work arrangement, so not interchangeable with “L”
Typical, I had one lying around 2 months ago, and sold it with a complete STAD “L”. I had spoken to DT at the time, but he never mentioned that you were needing spares for yours or I would have offered it. Sorry can’t help. L bits are tough to come by.

I’ll confirm what it is on wednesday but its down in the bottom with 3 fuel pipes and a leccy plug to fit on to it on the same side as the control panel down and to the right

Fuel control unit? there isn’t one on the L, it’s just an HP pump with a seperate HP by pass valve, and a pressure activated shuttle valve to change from idle to fast run. Well that’s the way our H*S L is set up anyway.
