I picked up a Lubester this week. The guy tried to sell it at a garage sale but it didn't go, so I got it!
It is a rusty old thing and is missing a couple parts. The Cylinder (And inside pieces) and handle are not there. The man told me the cycliner had been glass at first, then he said metal. Is there a way to tell which it should have?? I just want to put the pump back together now, since don't have time to restore it right away.

Easier to find a complete pump than to find the correct cyl, shaft, bolts, handle w/ knob.
Bet there is someone close that you could get one from.

you should add a town/city to your profile, & quit living under a rock "Loc: Pacific NW" !

2-3X what he should be able to get one locally. Barrel pump, but shipping will kill the deal.
Portland has swap meets, look & ask around, $25-50.
