Hello All -
On my -10, running full rich during climb, I sometimes get the infamous low fuel alarm that so many others get. So I flip on the aux....no big deal.
If I run a bit lean in climb, then the mechanical pump keeps up with the flow rate. But I really prefer to run rich in climb (cooling, etc).
So, my question:
I have checked out the fuel system for leaks, etc....I did find one and fixed it (in the channel, downstream of the aux pump). The channel is insulated and cool to the touch. Basically, I don't think I have a heat issue or any leaks. I think the mechanical just cant keep up.
So, is there a more capable mechanical pump that I can install ?
Thanks,
Scott
