Hello All,
New guy here. I have a Pitts S1S with Christen manual fuel pump. The threads in the pump housing where the filter bowl attaches are shot. Aviat tells me the pump is no longer made. They gave me the name of a guy that rebuilds them. I spoke to him about cleaning up the threads and replacing the filter bowl. Might work, but the treads are pretty chewed up from what I believe to be an overtorque situation. Any ideas to save the unit? Anyone have a complete one for sale?
Thanks
