One of the parts I need to replace is the glass cylinder. How well do the acrylic and extruded plastic cylinders stand up to sunlight and weather? Thanks!! John

It has been outside for 8 years. Right now it looks more like Saran Wrap than it did the day I put it in. I'm satisfied with that as the pump needs to be repainted... You can NOT expect that much life from an extruded cylinder. Ron Scobie rscobie@gaspump.com Ron Scobie http://www.gaspump.com or rscobie(TheAtSymbol)gaspump.com Phone - Six five one-653-6503
