Paul Hershorin 360--471LA -------------- Original message from "Scott Keighan" : -------------- I got a fuel flow problem on my LIV with 40hrs on it. My left tank works no problem. When I switch to the right tank the engine quits in about 10-20 seconds. I've taken the line off at the tank and the fuel is gushing out so probly not the problem there. I can prime the engine with the right tank with the fuel pump on high but the engine shuts down after starting. Fuel vent is checked and not plugged.

I got a fuel flow problem on my LIV with 40hrs on it.
 
My left tank works no problem.
When I switch to the right tank the engine quits in about 10-20 seconds.
I've taken the line off at the tank and the fuel is gushing out so probly not the problem there.
 
I can prime the engine with the right tank with the fuel pump on high but the engine shuts
down after starting. Fuel vent is checked and not plugged.
 
It's either the line to the fuel selector or the selector.
 
Any thoughts
