Fuel Primer

Post by 46cessna140 »

My original 1946 C140 Imperial Brass fuel primer leaks. Feedback on replacing the leather plungers (if available or if they can be made successfully) versus updating to a modern o-ring style primer would be appreciated.

I made one from the leather of an old wallet. Don't ask me any questions, though, as it was about 35 years ago. Still works, though!
