Beta 50 Bleeding Problems
(Preview)
Replaced primary and secondary fuel filters today. After bleeding engine it ran for about 5 minutes and then stopped. Bleeding was repeated with similar results. Plan to check for possible leak at the primary filter, secondary filter, and bleed screw. Any other suggestions?
