This drain back is on a Fry 117 that has the Rush conversion. Does anyone have a picture of the type of nozzle that locks into it? Is it a Rush or Fry? I've read on another post that somewhere in the Early 1930's, all visible pumps had to have the same size cylinder and Rush made a conversion for the Fry. From what I've pulled off the web this is a Rush hinged top. The indicators are Rush. Another question is what is up with the forks inside the front door? Did the filler tube go up and down to select the amount of fuel in the original Fry? Thats what it looks like. The tube appears to be fixed at the 10 gallon spot and the handle has been sawed off. Was that normal back in the 30's to do that during the conversion to a standard sized cylinder?

IF there is a small stud inside the drain back lid, a nozzle like a Tok 620 or Wayne 515/615 twist lock should work.
Finger slots were for raising /lowering the inside filler tube.
Yes.
