Hey Mac: I should have mentioned in my previous email that one item to
check would be the completion of AD 47-20-3. I have found several Ercoupes that
were not in compliance. I suspect that it was complied with long ago, and
then the fuel pump was changed, and the AD was not complied with a second
time. I think a big part of the problem is/was that the AD specified a
specific part number of fuel pump. When a new or rebuilt fuel pump was
purchased, the part number was different, so the person installing the pump
would
not comply with the AD. It makes sense to me to comply with the change even
though you have a different fuel pump part number. That AD required the
installation of the fitting containing the 1/16 hole, and rotation of the top
of the pump 2 screw holes which changed the location and routing of the fuel
pump lines.
