low fuel pressure

Aircraft Specialties' kit uses AN fittings and gets rid of the Rotax clamp block and associated banjo bolts altogether. Down the road, these new hoses will last much longer than the 5-year life span of the Rotax fuel lines.

Catbird I'm curious to know if you are removing the the block and associated banjo bolt what will you be using in the return line as a restrictor?

A flow restriction orifice fits into the return line hose fitting.

We are currently working with Catbird on his installation. We have been working with several rv-12 builders on fuel hose replacements, but are using Catbird as a beta test for a complete retrofit kit that comes with directions and pictures.

We want to make the retrofit kit as easy as possible for all rv-12 builders. We anticipate having a complete package with complete installation instructions sometime this fall.

Have a great week,
Steve

I ordered a new fuel pump from Lockwood and today I received a phone from Lockwood asking for the part number and the issue with my current fuel pump. Low pressure and the part number is 892546 which makes me eligible for a replacement at no cost.....eventually. I have to pay $96 to get the new pump and then when I return my original pump the $96 is credited back.

There is an email heading my way with the details and they said they would ship on Monday. There were two part numbers they were offering this deal on and if you didn't have one of them they didn't know when a fuel pump would be available.
