Fuel Pump replacement?

[Scalmanini Steve]

That might have been me you were referring to.  My
pump wined constantly, not just during startup, since
almost a year ago.  ' glad to have replaced it last
week.  Phil's relief after replacing his (see writeup
on Chris' web site) suggests he had a similar problem.


FWIW, I'm still researching a better combination of
parts than what I was supplied by Carlsen last Spring.
 The pump and spring pin that they sent me were
definitely not meant for each other, and I'm slowly
finding out why, but there are still a few loose ends.
 I'll let the list know soon.

Meanwhile, if anyone is planning to buy a fuel pump
and related parts soon, ask for advice first.

first 5-10 seconds of operation.
