Hi all,
Found this old beast on my property - it's supposed to be pumping water from a bore to a tank a km or so uphill past my house. It's powered by an electric motor and it goes - the piston moves up and down smoothly - but there ain't no pumping going on. Can anyone tell me how old it is, what parts might need replacing and where they're available (if they are)? And are these things tricky to take apart, assuming I can get through the rust?
Would be great to have it going before bushfire season starts. Regardless, I'd like to see it resurrected anyway as it looks like it should have plenty of life left in it.
Any tips much appreciated!
Sam
