edwardc Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I am desperate for a fuel primer for my PAP125 as per the picture. Can anybody help with where I can get a replacement or alternative please. I don't want to miss the fly in next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Shared on my FB page Is there a more commonly used primer system that you could fit instead? SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardc Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Hi Simon I don't really know. The primer has 2 petrol pipes on it and is part of the PAP set up rather than Corsair (it is a M25y Black Devil engine) and PAP agents aren't easy to find. I was hoping someone with a bit more knowledge of this system could help. If it would help anybody help me I can look at the paramotor and describe where the pipes go!

edwardc Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 It would appear that it is called a primer plunger and is made in the USA. I am hoping that Airtime products have one in stock but will have to wait until Monday to check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spigot Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Fit a choke plate from a Parajet and you won't need the pump or primer bulb Sent from my iPhone using PMC Forum mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardc Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 Hi Colin Good to hear from you. I have no idea what a choke plate is and why I won't have to prime my engine! Perhaps I need to find out more about how my engine works (or not works in this case) particularly the starting system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notch Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Do a search on ebay for "plunger primer", but probably too late for you? Or you could try and find a Jetski / snowmobile shop in the UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_b Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Contact Clive at bulldog paramotors, he used to have some small ones. Any where that does lawn mower repairs should have some. Similar to this. http://www.randysenginerepair.biz/servl ... ULB/Detail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 If Clive has one, I can collect it from him and bring it with me to the Fly-in. I know he is away this weekend so best to try on Monday SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardc Posted July 13, 2014 Author Share Posted July 13, 2014 Thanks Pete but it is not a normal plunge type primer. It is a dual primer but, as Notch indicated, it appears that it is common to nearly every Jetski made! I have ordered one from a Jetski parts supplier and should get it mid week.. Thanks for all your help, see you Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardc Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 Got home from work tonight, primer plunger had arrived from jetski dealer (thanks Notch), fitted in minutes and motor started second pull after a year of sitting in the garage! Worked a treat, looking forward to dodging thunderstorms at the weekend. See you all there. Eddie ps. If weather is bad perhaps Pete can do a course on how a 2 stroke works as he won't be able to do anything else with his dodgy hand! pps. Maybe not 'anything'else!

Guest Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 That's a good idea It will give Pete some practice ready for our trip to Sweden in August! (running an instructors course out there) SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
