    Re: looking for Isotov/ Klimov TV3-117, all variants

    I found this add...Presumably you are using TV3(s) in tractor pulling by now?
    I have one that that will attempt to use in a boat, but I'm still in the process of figuring out how to do the install, but foremost how to run it. I would truly appreciate any technical advice/suggestions...
    My main concern is the electrical hookup.  I was unable to locate an English manual, no appropriate cannon plugs. I have installed a 350A starter/gen in place of the air starter but I have not been able to run it for the above mentioned reason.
    Aside from the electrical questions is the N2 control dilemma. With lack of any electronic 'boxes' do you just hard wire the N2 lever ant throttle N1 only? or you use them simultaneously via cam action say like in a carburetor?
    If you have any knowledge in this matter, and willing to shear it, than sincere thanks. Rick
