      Thanks Griffo - I heard swinging the compass can be challenging for the AVmap.
      As you say, still a neat little instrument and I use a handheld Garmin for navigation.
      Would be great to be able to use the AVmap's HSI with some precision.
      Cheers. Jan

      Hi Griffo,
      
      I agree with most of what you say, especially about vapours returning through the
      fuel return line to the tank if there are any in the system hence my comment
      about assisting starting especially when hot. I think the restricted fuel return
      line is in the build manual, so all Europa's should be fitted with it, I
      know mine is.
      
      I do leave mine on when starting, the pump only draws about 1.5 amps so shouldn't
      affect starting too much, but I do agree that all electrics are best off when
      starting.
      
      The cost of replacement in the UK is about 40 for the Facet pump (about $80 Aus
      ?) which isn't a lot when amortised over the life of the pump - mine is still
      going after 7 years in my ownership and there is no record of it having been
      changed since build in 2001.
      
      I guess it's just down to personal preference so until someone comes up with really
      good reason not to do it, I'll be leaving mine 'on'

      DD, 
      
      There is no really good reason for continually running your auxiliary pump, nor
      is there a good reason for turning it off when not required, except for  the
      erlier point, that by leaving it on all the time, you may "mask" a failed main
      pump. 
      
      Other than this, I see no strong reason for arguing either way.
      
      Its just your argument for leaving it on is a bit weak.
