AndreiC Posted February 26, 2024 Report Posted February 26, 2024 For me AeroMotors came through in only a few days (2-3 days turnaround time) for a Weldon pump overhaul. However, I don't know if your pump requires a longer down time -- mine is different (fuel injection). Quote

No dice? Quote
hammdo Posted February 26, 2024 Report Posted February 26, 2024 Didn’t when I had mine overhauled by AeroMotors. Could look for the option at CJ Aviation https://www.mcfarlaneaviation.com/articles/cj-aviation-fuel-pumps/ -Don Quote
Rmfriday Posted February 26, 2024 Author Report Posted February 26, 2024 No one seams to have an exchange unit available. There is a factory new unit on email but I can’t get ahold of them and I am not sure if they actually have it in stock. Quote
Vance Harral Posted February 26, 2024 Report Posted February 26, 2024 Availability of overhaul/exchange fuel pumps has been an issue for some time now, I'm not surprised the OP is having problems. We went through this about a year ago with similar results: no overhaul/exchange units to be found anywhere. After a couple of days looking, we gave up and shipped our own unit to Aeromotors for overhaul, and they were able to turn it around relatively quickly. I think the airplane was down a total of less than two weeks. Not a big deal to us, but our airplane is just a hobby toy, we don't use it for business. Quote
