Put the new style fuel pump on about 15 hrs ago. No issues till now
On take-off today (~ 60 deg OAT), got a couple LOW FUEL PX warnings.
Brought the airplane back around to land, and noticed that the px was a bit higher.
Advanced the throttle back to WOT, and the px went down again. Not the point of alarm, but lower than at cruise pwr.
Fuel px in cruise is about 3+ psi
elec alone - ~ 1psi
Checked the gascolator just now - all clear
TT ~ 260 hrs
Mostly run on autogas
Sounds like a restriction?
Anybody else experience similar?
Thx much
