Ken,

Before we left Houston the pump:

1) was removed
2) disassembled
3) the filter was inspected
4) the filter was cleaned by blowing compressed air from the ID to the OD all around the circumference
5) I put the filter over my mouth and blocked off the open end with my palm and could breathe through it easily -YUK!
6) the nylon check valve that is retained by the clip was inspected carefully
7) the nylon check valve in the bottom of the "piston" was inspected carefully
8) the bore the piston rides in was inspected carefully
9) the piston was installed and the pump shook along the axis and the piston slid back and forth easily
10) the pump was reassembled and connected to a battery and I could feel and hear the "piston" moving up and down

I'm open to suggestions if you think of anything else to do to it?

Regards,
Rob M.

I do not plan on doing much of a failure analysis. My plan is to clean it up and reuse it. We fix those Facet pumps all the time
on aircraft rather than buy new ones. When they say aircraft that triples the new price on those Facet / Bendix pumps. We'll see
what Rob has planned.
