Gentlemen,



I am rebuilding the engine in N437RP after the #4 cylinder shed its nickel inner lining, and would like to add a heat shield to the fuel controller that this engine never had. If anyone has one for sale, or has the diagrams, or even one I could copy from, I'd be most appreciative.



Thanks in advance,



Bob Pastusek

Bob,

A little help here.  Do you mean the engine driven fuel pump, fuel injection spider, or turbocharger controller?

Barry,

I am looking for folded aluminum cover for the engine-driven fuel pump. Most Continental-equipped IV/IV-Ps have this, with a SCAT tube attached directing cool air from the top of the engine.

Thanks,

Bob

A personal thanks to each of you for the offer of help in getting this heat shield. First was the suggestion that I check with Lancair as it's a "standard" Lancair part. DUHH...I never even thought of that...I really am losing it. But I really wanted to comment on, and thank those who offered to remove this part from their airplane so I could copy it, or to loan it until I could find one of my own. Is this a great group of airplane owners/builders or what??!!



Bottom line: Brad Simmons had an extra, and wrote to tell me he's sending it; that I should send him payment when I can... I'm sure Brad will be pleased to hear that I intend to do this ASAP on Monday.



So thanks to you all for responding; request is satisfied/closed. I hope you will introduce yourselves to me at AirVenture and/or Redmond!

What you are looking for is the fuel pump "shroud."  It actually is two essential parts.  The shroud (gold colored aluminum) and an extended single stud for mounting it.  (See the attached photos.)  The shroud and stud are Continental parts.  I searched them out (somehow) in the past and purchased them directly from Continental.  I've looked back into the web-based parts manual for the TSIO-550B and E models and I don't see it depicted.  A phone call to Continental might get you what you want.  Note that I have been advised to remove the shroud from my fuel pump and I no longer have it installed.  I don't think that it was either a help nor a hindrance.  But it's gone now.  I might have the shroud kicking around the hangar somewhere and you are welcome to it...if I can find it (shroud AND stud.) I'll take a look this weekend.
