Born2Fly Posted August 8, 2023 Report Posted August 8, 2023 Hello All, I have the 1967 M20F. My aux fuel pump works so far but make high pitch noise. A&P suggested to start looking for options to overhaul or replace. The current pump appears to be Duke's but with strange part number - 1499-31-1. Can't find it online. Any suggestions on what would be the compatible option? Images attached with the current assembly. Appreciate your help in advance! Quote
N201MKTurbo Posted August 8, 2023 Report Posted August 8, 2023 I think the part number on the back is for the motor, not the whole pump assembly. You might try looking in the IPC. Quote
TNIndy Posted August 8, 2023 Report Posted August 8, 2023 I had mine rebuilt at Aeromotors earlier this year. $685 plus....... 1 Quote

Ouch that is a 40% increase over what they asked in 2019 when I had mine done. Are they still asking the customer to send a check and return shipping label with the core? It runs infinitely stronger than the original Dukes design and I expect it wall last quite a while longer. Quote
hammdo Posted August 8, 2023 Report Posted August 8, 2023 Yep, had mine done about 2 months ago… -Don 1 Quote

Yes, you have to pay upfront but there aren't many other options. The shop got a second quote for $1378 so that made the $685 seem a little better Quote

Per parts manual for your plane, boost pump for a '67 E/F is Mooney P/N is 610153-501. The equivalent Dukes part number is 4140-00-19A (see https://www.mooney.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/SIM20-47.pdf). Dukes is defunct. You can have it rebuilt as noted above or order a more modern drop in replacement with better internals from CJ Aviation (directly or via Aircraft Spruce) for ~1300 plus 400 core charge - part number is 4140-00-19ACJ. Weldon also makes an updated replacement but that one requires a retrofit kit and more install labor. I needed it fast so I went with the CJ aviation option. Edited August 8, 2023 by DXB 2 Quote
