fuel pump, boost and primer sticking???
It has been 5 months since I have had the 9 out of the hangar, winter in Alaska, but today I finally pushed it out to go flying and the primer pump would not work.
I checked the fuse and it was blown, I replaced it and it blew again.
I have the standard Van's primer pump, I think it is a Parker unit.
I am thinking that the pump has become stuck from inactivity. Is this likely? Has anyone had experience with this before?
Thanks in advance.
