BP Forum-


I am using a PS5 Carburetor on an O-360-A1D in an S1S. It's worked flawless even after recent engine rebuild. Last week my AI adjusted the mixture cable and since the carburetor will not a prime from the wobbler pump. Fuel dumps straight to the ground.


In checking the mixture cable travel on carb actuator arm all seems perfect. Primed with mixture rich and throttle full as normal.


Please advise if anyone familiar with PS5 carburetors have seen this before or knows a "PS5 Guru" to contact.


Thanks in advance.
