Analysis
After a loss of eng power, the plt made a forced landing on a street. While landing, the tip of the vertical stabilizer snagged a guy wire which crossed the street. The aircraft owner stated that the electrical fuel pump needed a rotor & body kit. He purchased a kit that did not have a yellow overhaul tag. The operator's personnel then overhauled, assembled & installed the fuel pump. The operator was not an FAA certified accessory repair station. Numerous discrepancies were found concerning the elctric fuel pump, including a missing carbon vane. The vane was found in the engine driven fuel pump screen.
