Does anyone have a copy of one of these manuals that I could purchase? Photo copy is perfect for me. A guy sells these on ebay, and I bought one. Three months later I still had not received it from him. Excuse after excuse, about how it was in another wherehouse, and he had to assemble it, and so on. I finally pushed him over the edge asking him to full fill his obligation, and send me my book. Instead, he refunded my money. I never did get the manual, and I'd never buy from him again. So, can someone help me out?
Here is his auction. http://cgi.ebay.com/Wayne-Gas-Pump-Co-in...1QQcmdZViewItem

These manuals were probably made up for use by a pump repairman, meaning that they took the individual pump manuals (the ones that were in the box with the pump when it was delivered) and put one of each in a binder like this one.
While this binder does contain a lot of good manuals it also includes a great deal of manuals for obscure equipment, ie, grease equipment.
I am presently listing every piece of petroleum related literatue I have for sale, on my website. I am just about done with the Bennett Pump Co. and have started on Wayne. I am listing both originals and copies, plus color sales literature. You can access it at: http://64.226.138.86/gaspumps/Companies.htm

I'm still hoping that one of you guys bought one of these manuals, and might have a spare?

Jack,I went to your website, and sent you an email requesting some literature. Different stuff than what this manual has in it.

Don. I got the same manual from the same guy. Only took about two weeks to get it. When I opened the box, the "manual" was nothing more than about 100 individual photocopied sheets, in random lengths, that were not put together in any kind of order. The print quality was very good and the information was really good. I can't complain. I still haven't sorted it all out yet. I'm sure I can make a copy of it. It might be a week or two though.

Richard, I tried to send you an email, but but it came back as undeliverable? Can you email me? Thanks for offering to help. I knew someone on here had to have a copy.
Don

Hey Don. You can e-mail me now. I changed my e-mail address a couple of months ago and forgot to change it with old gas. Richard

Doc,
Little by little I am posting gas pump manuals on my Ebay Stores website.
As I mentioned above, many of the items in this are for obscure pieces of equipment. Probably in the long run, purchasing copies of the manuals that you need would be the best thing.
Just let me know what you need and I will give you a price.
