Hi all , I'll appreciate your advice .
Piper Seneca 200t :
finished C&A. during which these works were done :
replaced both engine fuel&oil hoses ,replaced RE check valve , replaced RE engine fuel manifold drain , 100hour maintenance .
first flight - while taxing on about 1000rpm - right engine stopped .
after investigation : when the engine running on about 900-1000rpm , after about 1-2 min. RPM slowly drops and then engine stops.
we could run it alive if we pushed the throttle forward to high MP , and pushing the aux pump on .
running the engine on 1000rpm with aux pump on "low" - the engine did not stop .
same condition above - turning off the aux pump - same issue - engine quits .
my mechanic thinks it's - engine driven fuel pump .
your thought ?
