Subject: | Electric fuel pump |
On my new Rotax 912S installation I have the standard electric backup pump as supplied
by the factory (Facet 40106). Right from the start it leaked slightly,
seems to be from the actual case. As it was outside the warranty period I
ordered a new one which I have fitted today. This one is also leaking slightly
- again appears to be from the actual casing. I've not even flown with this
new one yet! Just tested it on the ground. I'm 100% confident about the hose
connections - remade them several times with good clips.
Am I being just unlucky here to have two duff ones or am I c*cking something up?
All I've done with them is remove the rubber blanking plugs from the holes,
fitted the hose fitting nozzles (correct size) and attached the hoses.
Cheers, Jon

Suggest the hose fitting nozzles are screwed into the pump body using a fuel
proof sealant.
Red Hermetite (available from Halfords) would do the job.

Subject: | William Mills' Ashes |
Hi Folks,
At Williams funeral, members of the Europa community gave an undertaking to Diana,
Williams wife, to scatter his ashes over Wales.
When I have been in contact with her over the last year or so, she has asked me
how these arrangements were progressing. I asked around a number of Europa fliers
and it seemed the answer was that no one was following it up.
It appeared to me that this was an undertaking we should do our very best to honour.
I am pleased to say that Dianas wishes were completed today. Those of you who would
like full details, please contact me off list, though I would mention it
involved some expense.
Any of Williams friends who feel they would like to contribute please contact me,
again off list.
I will be producing a record for Williams family, and would like to include the
names of any one who has helped.
All the Best,
Paddy

Hi Guys,
Red Hermetite isn't fuel proof [ guess what I use to remove it from old joi
nts ?] , use a smear of Redux.
Cheers,
Nev.

Thanks Carl and Steve! I shall try this straight away. I'm ""pleased"" to hear
it has been a common problem and that I'm not on my own - I'd run out of ideas!
