Phantom II - Petrol Pump.
--------------------------

We re-issue to you LeC. 3005, because we have altered the proportions of some of the parts:-

The little rocking lever has had the pins made larger to overcome the complaints of wear.

The stroke of the pump has been increased to .275" by altering the cam.

The pump capacity is now 50% larger than the ones you are using.
