Manus Vacuum Pump - doubleboost - 09-15-2014

Hi
Lads
This turned up today
Sadly it is seized
Starting to strip it down
It will make a good companion for my Lister

I will be showing the engine and pump at steam gatherings
I could use it to "suck" tin cans flat
It was used for milking cows JawdropJawdrop

It looks a fine beast John , I bet its nice and light to lift on your bench too is it Rotfl
Hope its nothing serious making it be seized.
Cheers Mick.

Looks like a fun project John. How about some pics of the Lister? I tried to find one over here a few years ago, but at the time they were pretty much non-existant in the states.
