Does this model of the Beaver have a Fuel Primer Pump? If so does it work?
A camera would be required to view/access it.

The Fuel Primer Pump does not appear in p.19 Fig 3-5 of the manual.

Par. 3.5.7 does not explain how to view the Fuel Primer Pump.
Tom's explanation (Ctrl-Shift-Enter/Backspace) could be included in the manual.
Alternatively a camera added to aircraft.cfg ...

Yes, I'll add a number and a name to figure 3-5 on page 19 of the manual depicting where it is, although please keep in mind that it's not visible in that image...

However, it's location is most definitely described on the next page of the manual, page 20, in paragraph 3.5.7, with it's proper use and functionality being described in paragraph 4.4.1, step (h), on page 31. :)
