Looking for schematic(literature)on how lever and storage arrow works.Great site .Thanks for the help

On your 176's upper access door, is the horizontal notch for the lever to move in towards the top or bottom of that door?

Bottom of door ,thanks for the time

Appreciate the time.It has a lot of "custom "work behind the skins. thanks for helping clear things up.I'll post some pics after I read instructions

I just joined this website today and had the same question in mind. I am pretty certain my pump is a G & B T-176 but I have not been able to figure out what year it was produced since the tin manufacter label was missing. Everything else including the storage arrow seems to be there though. Good luck!

Without the original ID plate w/ Serial # it is impossible to date your pump. With a picture WE MIGHT be able to say it was built between this & that.


Instructions are for women re; after you assembled something & have many parts left over, then the Wife proceeds to read you the instruction!

Here are a couple of pictures that might help. The 1st shows where the main plate is attached to the drainback pipe inside the pump. The 2nd shows the linkage attaching the pointer mechanism to the rod. The lever for the drainback isn't attached to the rod for the arrows in any way, it is simply blocked from moving to the drainback position by the rod.

your pictures look just like my pump with the lever on the bottom.the more discussion ,pictures and information the better.all of its a great help

I hope I am doing this right. Hopefully the image of my 176 with the arrow display will show up above.

The URL above is a full picture of my 176 before I removed the skins to begin its restoration process. The one thing my pump is missing is the G & B tin nameplate so I am not sure when it was manufactured. Thanks for the help guys!

When using Image Shack [or other Image Hosting Sites], ALWAYS select the Link for Forums to Copy & Paste.

I am not seeing the option you mentioned "Forums to Copy & Paste". Is this in Image Shack or somewhere else? There is a "320x240 websites and email" option in the Image Shack dropdown list. Is that what you mean?

You have to select the "Forums" link, then copy that link. Then come to Oldgas and paste it in the reply box hit submit and your picture will be here for us to see.

Good stuff guys, my GB176 was also dis-assembled when purchased. Based on above pics in link, i am missing the piece that connects to the car/Storage indicator. Dave, could you email me an internal pics at gama66@bigpond.com
