FX-1 Primer pump

[2strok4fun]

Im tired or replacing the old primer pump. with the alcohol these seem to only last a couple years. I have seen some where there is a bulb type primer like a weed eater or mower. Where can you get these types and how do they last.

Wamiltons has them. I've had mine for two years and they don't hurt if your knee hits em!

Been running these for 4+ years and no failures. It's also a lot nicer to hit your knee on and costs 4 bux!

Thanks for the info, the lawnmower option is perfect. How do these work? is there a check valve inline? I only see 1 line input. How big is this in relation to the big hole from the plunger.

I attempted to repair the plunger but the knob broke the stem instead of coming off. I am done with these damn plungers.

It's got 2 lines and hooks up same as plunger style.
