The type of handle is determined by the type of mechanism you have. If it is ECO mech you need an ECO handle which is easy to find. The Gilbarco mech uses a different and much harder to find handle.

It is for the knob to turn the scroll for info on tire pressures for different cars if the meter came with that option. Otherwise a metal plug is used to fill the hole. Unless you meter face has been replaced your unit did not have this option.

Jack here. We have been extremly busy, just sold four completely restored ECOs, packed the last one today.

I have an original used wall mount available, for $75.00 + shipping. I don't have an original handle, but I do have a replacement. It attaches with the set screw, a little different from the original, but it will do until you find an origianl. Will find it tomorrow and let you know the price.
