Now that I have the pump out I am having trouble getting the fill and drain pipes out. Every time I try to unscrew the pipes the whole pump wants to twist because all the support has been taken out. Should I remove the back skin and just leave the pipes attached to the cylinder base?

One other question. How does this mechanism come apart? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks to Jerry's descriptions I was able to get the cylinder base with the piping still attached freed from the skins. Almost ready to go to sandblasting.

You should take a few photos of the BlackT Sky Chief sticker, it will be long time before you see another one.

Good morning Dug, I am also new and just saw your pump, very cool! I am restoring a Wayne 515F and the only thing I see different is mine does not have the valve lever on the side. Looks like you are doing a great job dismantling your pump.

Keep in mind Dug hasn’t logged on since April 14, 2019 so you may not hear back from him.
Your pump looks like it’s coming along nicely!
