To prevent possible failure of the diaphragms in the two AC fuel pumps on Franklin Model 6A8-215-B8F and -B9F engines and to provide a drain line to carry fuel away from the engine compartment in case of a diaphragm failure replace the fuel pumps with new fuel pumps, AMI P/N 15438 and 15439, and install drain lines. Aircooled Motors, Inc., Kit P/N 15464 contains parts and instructions for making these replacements.
