You might want to be more specific about what pump you are needing this for as there are a few different ones

Not as far as I know, but if anyone wants to start I have available parts lists and information on just about every clock used.

Exactly what are you wanting to do with it? The term "rebuilt" is going to be different for a clock mech than for a Veeder Root computer. There is really not much to a clock mech, so a rebuild would mostly consist of a dissassembly, glass bead cleaning, lube and reassembly. If there are parts that are corroded/broken (as is common) then that is a problem because there are no replacement parts available like there is for a Veeder Root. Just some thoughts, Tom.

I would like to get it to work but it is froze up and a couple of the gears are missing teeth from corrosion.

That's why I was asking the questions, I suspected there where damaged parts. I believe this is the same unit as a Bennett 150-somewhat common-so if somebody had a broken mech(the castings are somewhat fragile) you could salvage the parts. I would say in my opinion it be cost prohibitive to have the gears made. I don't have any parts for this one laying around right now, otherwise it would be an easy job to get it working. Tom.
