drifter001 Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Hello Does anyone know where one can find the filter kit listed in the SB? More than anything, i need the brass fitting that goes into the boost pump (PN 9515 6x6 i believe is what its listed as). thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Let’s say my memory isn’t that good… Got a copy of the SB you can share? got a pic of what you are looking for? Which filter kit are we discussing? Which boost pump do you have? If you can bring me up to speed, I can invite somebody that has the answer you are looking for… Sounds like you are looking for a screen that used to be installed downstream of the pump that would fall apart… Some people replaced the faulty pump, and possibly skipped the unneeded screen… PP thoughts only, not a mechanic… Best regard, -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The inline filter is still intact (we have the dukes 4140-00-19a) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yetti Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 This SB was done because the Dukes pump would self distruct and send plastic pieces downstream You should send your dukes pump to https://aeromotors.azurewebsites.net/ they will rebuild it to be like a Weldon and run continuously. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pump ad was complied with in '69 but from what i see in the updated AD list, the filter is still required unless the pump was switched to thee 4199-00-19a so from my understanding, the filter still needs to be in place.

Or your favorite MSC… If for some reason, new parts are not available… For pre-flown Mooney parts…. Find @Alan Fox Best regards, -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some Mooneys, 65 and older used steel parts in the fuel tank… rust bits, mostly get strained out by the fuel separator… Steel is bad. For this type of discussion… ask your mechanic.

Yetti Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Sure comply with the SB. I just would not want a self destructing pump on my plane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted July 21, 2022 Report Share Posted July 21, 2022 Note… Some electric fuel pumps have time limitations for their operations… There are also flap speed restrictions… ...and gear extended speed limitations… At 1k’ agl the checklist indicates to put things away and turn off the pump…. Everyone has omitted these things at least once… If swapping out the old pump… get the one that allows continuous duty…. Avoid wild pump vanes escaping captivity… PP thoughts only… Best regards, -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
