Make an accurate sketch of what you need to show. Base od, Height, od 1/4 up from base, od 1/2 up from base, od 2/3 up from base, id and height of hole you need for mounting. Post, pm, or email.


I will make a 3D model and print in hard plastic. You should be able to paint it flat black and epoxy onto your pump and make it look as good as new yet "for display purposes only".

Thanks Karl. I will do that. Give me a few days. I am deep into finding out what my problem is with Apatchy. My Avatar. Trash in the gas. I have drained the tank and filtered the gas through a pillow case. Pretty good bit of black stuff. This is a relatively new Drake reproduction tank. I'm going to put the filtered gas back in the tank, slosh it around good and do the same all over again till it comes out clean. Charlie NY has my carb and fuel pump, cleaning them out. I am replacing all rubber gas lines with ethanol safe hoses and new filters at the electric pump, fuel pump and carburetor. It is challenging my 90 year old body, but I WILL[ get it done and post the results. Check your PMs as well. Lawson
