dcc kaiser Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Bought the ex-Bala Cynwyd 1948 Mack last month. Nice rig, have it cleaned and lettered, but when I hooked it up to a hydrant this afternoon, I found out that at some point during it's soujorun out west, the pump froze up, the case is split wide open. So, now I'm looking for a 750GPM 3 outlet pump, one that isn't cracked. What good is a L85 that can't pump at draft at Harrisburg in July?

1958 F.W.D. Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Mack did not make the pump. Chances are that it is a Waterous pump, possibly a Hale. Quote TWO STROKES ARE FOR GARDEN TOOLS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Cal Little, he is one resource I'm going to call. This is my 1st time using this forum, just got this rig after my 1948 L85 sedan cab was incinerated on September 1st in the propane explosion in Collingdale, Pa . BIG thanks to all who responded!

I was talking to Nick at the Philly Muster about that rear for their Mack, told them they could look at the one in our burned rig, but probably the fire was so hot that it is pretty much toast, so to speak. It's a shame, I have 3 Hale pumps out there, but they are just so roasted that anything rubber or leather is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
