hi All,
Thanks for your help. I posted this thread in a bit of a hurry, I do know that my Fuel Injected engine does not have carburetter (not much more though)
I was not sure where the fuel went from the Fuel Pump. I now know it goes to a Diverter. Thanks to you lot.
Talked to my friendly Cessna maintainers today. Apparently a number of 'new' Cessnas have had intermittent problems with the flow divider. Precision Airmotive (the manufacturer) used some form of goo on the diaphragm shaft which rather than lubricates causes the opposite - it doesn't allow the diaphragm to lift to allow fuel through, hence no start.
Thanks for above,
I also spoke to my local Engineer and he described the same as above. The aircraft is still under warranty so I will be able to reclaim the cost's of fixing this. However if it is a recurring problem I will need to speak to Cessna.
Smarthawke, thanks for your assistance.
