Guys, whats would you recommend for potentiometers for the ECCI4000 and the TWS2 Stock. I'd prefer to use Digi-key since I have an account with them. Price is not an issue.
I use spectrol in my TSW Mike, been in unit for over a year, spray them with Tuner Cleaner every once in a while, but no spikes or inconsistencies ever......so far -- Jeff Eiland Georgia Boot #51 "Knights of the Round Track" http://www.paladinracing.com "Mike Grandy" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8NWa6.152421$[email hidden]... > Guys, whats would you recommend for potentiometers for the ECCI4000 and the > TWS2 Stock.

Mike, If some one replies directly to you regarding recommendations for your CDS4000, would you mind posting here? I'm interested in trying something other than the stock pots.

I myself replaced the stock ECCI CDS4000 pots with Clarostat #RV4NAYSD104A, no problems so far and quite a bit cheaper than ordering them from ECCI. - George
After doing some research and talking to a few engineers in the electronics field I have decided to try the pots listed below. CT2357-ND POT 100K OHM 2W CERMET I hadn't opened my unit yet to see what was in the wheel but when I did I was surprised to see that it was a Clarostat #RV4NAYSD104A. Thats a $5 pot and was also used now by TSW in the TWS2 Stock that I purchased this year. The pot in my ECCI lasted over 2 years while the ones in the TSW only lasted less than 6 months under casual use. -- Mike Grandy Precision Racing www.precision-racing.com "Bob Geddes" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Mike, > > If some one replies directly to you regarding recommendations for your CDS4000, > would you mind posting here?
