Dead 912UL Fuel Pump Pass Through
Following six months without use, and the 5-year rubber replacement, the engine driven fuel pump on my 912UL failed to operate in a ground test. The pump was installed in 2015 and had about 200 hours on it.
Of concern is that the dead pump did not allow fuel to pass, either via gravity flow from the wing tanks of my Zenith 701, or the Facet electric pump. I demonstrated fuel flow to the inlet side of the engine mounted pump, but nothing at the outlet.
I thought that the engine-mounted pump was designed to allow fuel to pass through it on failure. Is this correct?
I am simply replacing the errant pump,
