| Subject: | wet pump vs. dry |
Has anyone switched from wet vacuum pumps to the dry variety. A rebuild
of my recently failed wet pump was quoted at $800.00. Relatively
speaking, a brand new dry pump looks to be a bargain @ $500.00
My vac unit for the left engine is mounted on the bottom end of a "T"
which also drives the hydraulic pump. I'm considering swapping the wet
pump off the right engine -which is mounted directly to the accessory
case - and replace that pump with the dry unit. By mounting the dry
pump on the right engine it would attach to the back of the engine in
the conventional manner.

I haven't been there (yet) although I know the area fairly well (before
1993). This will be on our agenda the next time we go to South Africa. See

Stay with the wet pump.? They are much more reliable and last much longer.? Also,
there is no approved replacement for your application.? On another note, what
propellers do you have??? I have a pair of "MV" propellers that I believe will
fit your airplane.? No AD inspection.? They are like new and have about 200hr
since O/H with new hubs, clamps and bearings.? ? jb
