?Hello Gentlemen,

Does my X Air mechanical fuel pump use any residual motor oil from crankcase for lubrication or is it an entirely separate system, and keeps cool using the fuel as a lubricator?

Also, I cannot seem to find where my electronic fuel pump is...? Do most pilots install their pumps underneath the fiberglass floor or is it installed behind the instrument panel??

Right now my fuel tank is full but my fuel lines are bone dry as well as no fuel in the fuel filter. Will the electronic fuel pump siphon fuel through the lines into the carb or do I keep throttle closed but choke fully engaged to prime/pump fuel mechanically using the starter and mechanical fuel pump?

Thanks again,

Justin
