New toy

[Greg F.]

Hello, I was looking around trying to find out some information on an old DeLaval vacuum pump for a milking machine and this looks like the place.

I recently picked this thing up thinking I would rob the pump off of it and hook it up to an electric motor and put it back to work on my little hobby farm. After looking at a few on here I may have to change my mind.

I don’t have it cleaned up enough to get model numbers off of yet but maybe in the next few days. The engine looks to be a two cylinder with the cylinders vertical. It looks complete except for the cap and rotor are missing off of the mag. Engine turns freely.
The pump has what looks like a little generator built on the back side to be used for lighting or? It seems to be in good shape.

Anyway, when I get numbers off of it I am sure I will have plenty of questions for you folks.
