Re: Propeller deicer pump PA 39
Wiggins used two different types of pump. One is variable speed and is a Weldon 100B-6. This can be overhauled - with difficulty and at significant cost at a couple of places. One is Consolidated Aircraft Supply.
Later installations used a Bendix pump 478360. I think this is installed as a single speed off/on pump.
Search the FAA database for the STC for the info. STC is SA184EA
I am pretty sure the Bendix pump is the standard PA-28 etc fuel pump and is easily available

I know that the alcohol systems on Beechcraft aircraft include a flow restrictor in the system, and I suspect that Wiggins might have done the same.

Has anyone this STC or dates from the Bendix pump P/N 478360?

Re: Propeller deicer pump PA 39
i do not need the STC, th prop-dice is original installed by Piper, but I can not find any information about th Prop dice in the Piper manuals, so I can see the different installation between a WELDON- and a BENDIX pump. About the Bendix pump, i can find a lot of pumps to buy, but no technical details as GPH and PSI and so on.
But thank you for your assistance.
