    From: "Stewart, Michael (ISS Atlanta)" <mstewart@iss.net>
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Stewart, Michael (ISS Atlanta)" <mstewart@iss.net> A direct fuel pump replacement for the AFP electric fuel pump is the Carter fuel pump part number P74015 I have replaced mine on the road before readily available from Napa or autozone ~$120 A search of the archives will help. Message 121131 It was Charlie Kuss that had all the G2 on the pumps and filters. I had 2 pumps maybe 3 die on my rv-6 in 1500 hours. I had to run my pump above 7k' for vapor lock so mine ran a lot. A change in the filter element to a finer filter solved the problem and I used that same smaller micron filter for my 8. Enjoy, Mike -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Skylor Piper Sent: Monday, September 11, 2006 6:18 PM Subject: Re: RV-List: Fuel Pumps --> RV-List message posted by: Skylor Piper <skylor4@yahoo.com> Here's an MSD pump from Summit Racing that appears to be very similiar to the actual AFP pump: http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=MSD%2D222 5&N=700+4294925239+4294839053+4294836965+4294891680+115&autoview=sku (the link may be broken...) $93. Keep in mind, however, that the AFP pump includes a pressure reliev valve, the bypass check valve & associated manifolding & plumbing, as well as a filter. When bought from Van's, it also includes a mounting kit . The $93 pump from summit racing is just for the pump only.

    Hi Mike, I tried to find message "121131" in the archives, but apparently it won't let me search on the message number. There are 1573 hits on "fuel pump". Any suggestions on how to find messages relevant to this pump? do not archive Thanks, Dan Hopper RV-7A IO-360-A1A In a message dated 9/12/2006 6:42:06 A.M.

CHUCK WHAT SAY YOU// > > THANKS > > > BERT ==================================== Bert: A bit difficult to decipher the problem. The requirement is 150 RPM drop for EACH Mag and a 50 RPM drop between BOTH Mags. Now, the problem sounds like TIMING. Have you set the timing to 25 D BTDC? You did say you cleaned and gaped the plugs. Did you also check the spring on the spark plug wires? They should be clean and making good contact BEFORE the holding nut is tightened down. What plugs are you using? What Gap did you set? If your timing is off you can get quite a bit of lead fouling. Also LEAN ... LEAN ... LEAN. On the Ground and in the Air. There are lots more things to check but first start with the basics. Barry "Chop'd Liver"

    Subject: RV10 Tail Kit For Sale
    One of the local RV builders here in the Fayetteviile, NC area has an RV10 tail kit that he has finished all the tail feather work on, but has decided to go in another direction. Therefore, we have a tail kit for sale. The workmanship is very good, and the firm asking price is $3200.00. This is less than the tail kit itself, much less getting it shipped to you. One picture is attached. If you are interested, reply off list, and I'll send more pictures, then we can talk. David Davenport RV-6 N168DD 228 Hrs. ddavenport5@nc.rr.com
