Ok, last post

If your internal workings are corroded and nasty it’s pretty likely that they are un repairable. In this case you can either use the correctly numbered re-assembled non functioning unit for shows, or you can transfer the internals from a new reproduction unit with a generic housing, or another old one that’s in better shape. One note on reproductions, as illustrated in this photo, they are not built as well as originals and provide less power to the plunger. Many report that they function “lazy” or not at all because of this.
