Fuel flow

edited September 2018 in General Discussion
Hello all, my engine just hit tbo. However my compression are all 77 or higher and no metal in the oil, but last night i noticed my fuel flow would at times drop to about 3 psi, then go back to 5.

To confirm its not the gauge, the electric pump holds 5 or more steady.

Is this a concern?

Thanks..
Kevin

  • Anytime you've got only one engine, any anomaly is a concern. Your engine might be in perfect health, but I would definitely have your A&P look at the fuel pump. That probably needs attention.
