Hi all,
My -12 has now 76 hours on it and the last time I shut it down, after a 1.5 hour flight, the noise made by the electric fuel pump had obviously changed. Instead of a steady hammering at now has a regular two-tone hammering. I will replace it before I fly again but I am interested to know if this is a typical failure mode, or does it usually just stop working and go quiet?
