| Subject: | F I fuel pump for sale |
Listers,
I have a brand new (in the box) Carter electric fuel pump. This is the same fuel
pump sold by Airflow Performance and Vans. This is ONLY the pump itself, without
the manifold, pressure relief valve and check valve.
I decided to save some money and buy/build the other parts myself. I built mine
for about $250. I bought two extra pumps for my friends. However, one guy decided
to use a carbureted engine and backed out.
Airflow Performance sells the bare pump for $300. I'll sell this one for $180 plus
shipping ($10-$16). I also have info on how to build the manifold and where
to buy the valves. Contact me off list if interested.

Vans gauges suck for RF intolerance, I've thrown away about four of them. Of
course Van's won't acknowledge there is a problem.

It is not just "VANS" gauges, a lot of them well fluctuate if the wire
placing and shielding is not just right.
Seems strange to me that if they suck so bad you would buy at least four
of them and throw them away.
do not archive

Charlie,
If you or anybody else knows a lot about these pumps, maybe I'm your buyer.
I've got one in my RV that is about 4 yrs old with 300 hrs. About 50 hrs
ago, I ran it inadvertantly for a few minutes with the fuel valve off. It
may be my imagination, but it makes more noise now. No leaks, plenty of
pressure but this may be a good time to replace it. I guess my question is,
will a few minutes of running with a closed off suction damage these pumps?

| Subject: | How to Tell if You have ECI/Superior Cylinders |
I've had a few inquiries about whether or not customers' engines may be
affected by the proposed Superior/ECI service bulletins. Some of you
may not know which types of cylinders were used on your engine. If your
engine builder provided you with a detailed parts list, you should be
able to distinguish which manufacturer made your cylinders by reviewing
the nomenclature. ECI Lycoming replacement cylinders have an AEL in
front of them, and Superior Lycoming replacement cylinders have an SL.
If you have purchased a kit engine from BPE, only Lycoming OEM cylinders
were used.
If your engine builder did not provide you a detailed parts list, you
can easily identify which cylinders you have by looking at the rocker
box boss above the exhaust port for the AEL, SL or Millenium insignia.
Hope this information is helpful to at least some of you!
Everyone have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend!

The fuel in the pump actually lubricates the bearings and internal parts of the
pump. I'm an auto mechanic by trade. I've seen pumps (in cars) make noise and
yet runs for years after. However, a noisy pump is usually the first sign of
a future failure.

| Subject: | Determining value of RV-6AQB kit for sale |
Hello All,
I have searched the archives and not found the answer.
I have someone interested in my RV-6AQB kit. It includes
the tail, wing, and fuse kit but no finishing kit. I paid $17,800
for the kit plus shipping. Approx. 200 hours build time but lets
assume no work has been done. If anyone can provide some
insight on what would be a fair asking price, I would appreciate it!
Thanks,
David

David,
In 1999 I paid $17k for my QB kit second-hand. It included the finish kit
and the empenage kit had been build (very nice job). QB kits from Vans were
going for something like $25k at the time.
Hope that helps as a data point.

David,
Just another opinion. I sold my 50% completed RV-9a kit with instruments,
prop but no engine for what I had purchased it all from Van's. Prices had
gone up and I had paid some builder assistance dollars and of course freight
costs. The buyer got a good deal because prices had gone up since I started
on the kit 3 years back and quality was quite good. And I felt good about
not losing out on my matl's costs. I figured my labor, freight & help were
just part of my learning experience. I'm now flying a completed RV and
very, very happy with my decision to buy and stop building. I have lots of
build experience but with a better RV than I would have ended up with for (
I think) less money.
Another Data Point.
Greg
