Subject:FI Pump storage Q
From:CARVER, JEFFREY D

How should a used electric FI fuel pump be stored?

Full of gas? (that'll go to varnish, but might
protect the seals).  Or
Dry? to keep fuel from messing up seals.

I removed the pump last summer, and replaced
it with one form the 'other' bus.  It was making
noises, but dead yet.  I did drain it, it took
weeks to dry out.  But now I have reservations
on what I did.

If one does store it full, what do you put it in
to keep from spilling the gas?!

Does it matter or we should go back to
our regularly scheduled mayhem!
