Can someone tell me what this may be off of? I have not restored a gas pump for 12 years and I am finding parts that are confusing me.

Any help?

That looks like a canister off a Wayne 505. I have scraped hundreds of those over the years. The top and bottom are cast aluminum, the tube is aluminum sheet. Inside there is a copper/brass float and some other copper and brass parts.


FREEDOM oil items wanted.

Thanks Ryan,

Was this installed outside the pump? I cant find any pictures of a Wayne 505 with this canister installed on the outside.

It is a " air separator " that vented to the outside of suction pump. Enables pump to pump only product. Dan.
