I have a Canadian Bowser 10 gal visible Figure 15T Pump #1144. There is a drain back valve that is missing the handle.
Does anyone have a picture of a Bowser drain back handle?

Here’s a picture of the whole pump if anyone recognizes it.

Have you checked out www.gaspump.com or asked Ron Scobie at that site?

I ended up using the top end of a 3/4” valve. I had seen another Bowser pump with a round valve handle to switch between open and closed to drain the cylinder. It fits and the brass matches with the hardware and nozzle so I think that’s the best it will be.

I haven’t seen the locks on a twin but you can see in the picture below the blue line is pointing to where the casting attaches to the lower bowl and is connecting to the drain back pipe. Turning the valve pushes the spring up and inside the lower bowl is a brass stopper that goes with it.
