Hello all, we've been cleaning up the shop and came across this pump. I'm not sure what model it is, but I'm guessing it's a Tokheim 280? or something close. What say the experts? Thanks!

The 280 has a long door with the hand operated handle in it. Without that long door, your pump is probably a 285 which is a motor operated 10 gallon pump.

I believe my website for the 285 is incorrect, in that I ID the 280 as a 285. My problem is that I cannot change anything presently on my website.

Yes, it definitely has the motor inside. I did stumble upon that link before I joined here. The corresponding ad would be #T285S-1, correct? Thanks!

Mine says 505 with the stops in the side panel. Very heavy pump with the cast iron top, trying moving it around on a hand truck with it all complete.

Great. Now I'm confused. I'm going to go with the 505 since it has those same boxes. No doubt it's very heavy.
