VP-44 What Fails???

What are the causes of the VP-44 failures ?

Is it electronics? or Mechanical ???

When they just quit, is it a mech or elect failure?

Is there a link to a detailed discussion on the VP 44 failures?

either or will fail. the electronics will eventually break down causing an electrical failure. there is a rotor in the pump that if it is not properly lubricated by the fuel then it will seize causing a mechanical failure. it is not if it will fail but when.
