This is a long shot, but does anybody have the supports that hold the cylinder assm to the tube assm? They also are the glides for the slider ring. They go behind the 3 Volute covers in the middle of the pump. Thanks, Joe

i'm trying to straighten out that mess in mine also. There is a short inverted piece for drain back & one that looks like a mushroom for gas coming in. The tall one that i've seen is machined down at the top & had a stainless cover over it. I don't know if that's correct. There's a guy who's handle is "Morgan" who has been helping me out on mine....Joe

There are 3 threaded hole in the base one for the "mushroom". One for the overfill pipe, & one for the "fuel in". It is a couple inches tall & flaired on the inside. The overfill pipe is regular pipe that hase been machined down at the top for a sleeve...possibly stainless

I don't know what I will do for a lock. The lock shops have something that is close but because I had to purchase a replacement handle, the actual I.D. is unknown.

I also found something @ a lock shop that is close. I tried to turn housing down, but found it didn't like machining. Another thought was to bore out the handle to fit cylinder housing or make a sleave for lock mech.
Then I got side tracked AGAIN.
