I have a stupid unrelated question.

Why do you have a fuel pump on a '73 carbed 'Hawk?

I assume it is related to the 180 upgrade and I ask because I have that in the back of my mind for overhaul time.

My 1973 Skyhawk has the 360/180 hp engine carburated.
When the engine is hot it is difficult to start.
My procedure is master switch battery side on, fuel pump on. Prime throttle 3
times. Fuel pump off, turn starter while advancing the throttle.
Today she would not fire and the battery went south.

Any recommendations, suggestions.
Will check timing and Magnetos tomorrow.
