PUMP MAIN PRESSURE TESTING AND ADJUSTING
31.
Test stand (1)
Test and adjust pump main pressure as
follows:
a.
With vacuum set at &inch (203.2 mm)
HG on no. 2 vacuum gage (2) and throt-
tle lever (3) wide open, adjust speed to
2100 rpm.
b.
Place selector valve (4) to ROTAMETER
position.
c.
Set fuel flow to 315 pph with fuel flow
control valve (5).
Fuel pressure should be 172 to 178 psi
(1188 to 1227 kPa).
d. If 172 to 178 psi (1186 to 1227 kPa) fuel
pressure does not read on pressure
gage (6) adjust pressure.
FUEL PRESSURE TESTING AND ADJUSTING
CAUTION
Be careful not to damage bore of throttle shaft when drilling out ball.
NOTE
Throttle shaft internal adjusting screw is covered by a soft steel ball in end of throttle
shaft, and must be removed if not previously removed. Perform step 32 only if ball has

Using center punch, 1/4-inch drill bit, and
3/8-inch portable electric drill, drill out
ball.
33. Test stand (1)
