Re: Albatross p-bracket
For what it's worth, I used stainless steel countersunk with hex socket heads (easier to get out later) with a good amount of sikaflex to seal and form an electrolytic barrier.

Re: Albatross Mark 3 fuel pump
Not difficult, it’s for an SU low pressure pump. It fits on that bracket pointing backwards. The outlet with a gravity non return valve inside sits at the top. Options? Buy a new one from Burlen or check eBay, but one and a rebuild kit from Burlen. Are they reliable? Well…. Known to be sticky at tim...

Re: Galvanic corrosion on Pearly Miss
Galvanic corrosion needs contact between two metals which are apart on the periodic table and moisture. The same materials can cope if it’s wet, different materials if it’s dry.
