Subject: [LML] io550 fuel pump leak
I just got the aircraft back from the annual and after my trip this past weekend
a ton of blue staining exists below the fuel pump. I pulled throttle back and
mixture back to cutoff and turned boost pump on low. A steady dribble of fuel
pours out of the mixture shaft as it enters the body of the pump. A few seconds
results in a 6 inch pool of fuel on the floor.
I'm assuming a seal has failed. Any thoughts as I contemplate a
repair/replacement?
