I replaced the switch today (it was the easiest first step in trouble shooting) and did a couple of T&G's to check it out. On the first takeoff, I thought I'd solved the problem as the gear came up, the pump cycled about twice and everything settled down, as in normal. Though it looked like all was well, my engineer's gut said, "Hold it turkey, remember that one data point does not make a curve", so I did a bounce and go and, sure enough, this time the cycling was back. Damn! Another T&G with the same results told me I still had a problem to sort out. I will now take everyboky's good advice and check the cylinders and dump valve for bypass leakage. And of course, if that's not it, I'll have to pull the pump and get it off to Oildyne. Any bets on the final answer?
