The pump had been removed from the circuit and hoses joined, but that isn't how we fly. Today I removed the entire pump off the engine and left the hoses attached to allow fuel to flow through the pump. I ran it on the ground and at anything over 4100 rpm it would sputter and at 4800-4900 it was really rough. At 4000 rpm it did run and without any issues. That does mean you could still fly to a landing spot and use throttle to land. Once down I think your stuck. So the news is still good, just not as good -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.
