I was wondering about visa-gauges. Did pump companies produce them, or were they made by other companies? Which one would be appropriate for an accurate restoration on an Erie 753? What is a fair market price for such and item and does anyone out there have an extra one that they might want to part with? Thanks for any information in advance.

Steve , check with POGOGAS he has at least 3 on ebay right now , he had about 5 or 6 at one time , the ones that I've seen run about 175.00 to 300.00 depending on there condition, there are a lot of differant looking ones out there , most pump companys had there own style, I've been looking for one for a Bennett 132 or 150 for about a year now. good luck

Steve I do happen to have one, its on ebay right now for $169 which I think is cheap,I do have half dozen different ones I've decided to part with you can see them on my website. I bought another one yesterday for a Wayne 576, and paid $250 for it plus $35 for shipping. I already have one, but they are so hard to come by, I couldn't let it go. Like Chris said they are generally hard to find.........  ------------------ Lance pogogas@telus.net www.pogogas.com [This message has been edited by pogogas (edited 08-22-2003).]

The guages that were on the pump when it was new were made by the pump companies, but there were a great deal of after-market guages made by independent companies.
One more thing, many of the pump companies changed the size or shape of the guages during the run of a particular pump, so sometimes a particular pump could have two guages that are correct.

yeah like the visigauges on an 861 wayne,on some the hose drops out at an angle while others drop straight down & take up alot less room & you can get another pump closer to it etc... the first 861s i got dropped straight down & i thought thats how it was!?! then i sold those clockfaces to support my wayne 60 habit, i went out & found a couple more 861s & the darn things drop at an angle!!! if i only would have known i sure would of held onto the ol straighties!!!!!!!!
