Nothing was wrong with mine. I just saw a path to help all the coupers save some money and now everyone can get there own approval much easier. The kit from then and now contains all of the required items for the yearly AD plus everything to completely rebuild the pump if you choose at half the price of just the bolt and screen from aircraft spruce

Thank you, I had another coupe owner tell me he had to do the same thing. He removed the arm and trued up the pump mounting surface.

I battled the same issue on my previous engine and it turned out the fuel pump to casing flange was not flat. I had a local shop "true it up", got it signed off, and put it back on with no further leaking.

Just curious what was going on with your fuel pump? I have an oil leak from or around the my mechanical fuel pump which I thought was the mounting gasket which we replaced but I still have the leak. I am thinking it maybe leaking at the roll pin holes or the diaphram may have a hole in it. Appreciate any insight. Thanks
