Lycoming is notorious for part number changes. Any time they change a
vendor they change a P/N. Tempest makes the pump also. Call Justin at
Quality Aircraft Acc.

Subject: Re: RV10-List: Fuel Pump Issue
After shipping the data logs from my two flights and ground testing to
Lycoming, they are recommending replacing my fuel pump. Naturally, I
am just outside the warranty period.
They recommended a part #62B26931, which I can find that it is an
approved substitute for the installed part, which is a LW15473. Anyone
know what the difference may be?

Seems rather poor customer service to sell an experimental engine, that
they know won't be put into service for many months after the sale, if
not a year or so, to not cover a fuel pump that only has an hour or two
of actual operation.

Allen,
Any opinion on the differences between the Lycoming part and the Tempest? The
Tempest is $100 less expensive.
Thanks,
Bob

They seem to work just fine in the test cell and I haven't heard of any
field issues.

paperwork?
Go with the Tempest and spend the difference on 100LL/

Well, I'm sure it would drive Lyc into bankruptcy to warrant that $200 pump.
