Dick,

I do know that the Bowser 410 uses a different, but similar visi gauge.
They have a differnt number of rods and the tops are different.


Looking for nearly anything related to Signal Oil

I've never seen any BOWSER visi's that have an inner smaller glass cylinder, like the TOKHEIM's do.
Although the 310 & 410 are similar they are different. The 300 is completely different.

Both OPW and Morrison made generic vista gauges for gas pumps. They are shown in my Gas Pump Identification book. Are you sure the one on your pump is a Bowser?

The one I had did have a vertical alum. spinner inside it, looks like the glass cylinder on yours is smaller than the original.But I may be wrong, I'm not an expert on it.
