Rebuilding Stoddard Ampico Pump
By Mike Walter

Hi all,  Our 1914 Stoddard Ampico is starting to develop some
cobwebs and so it is time to start restoring her to her former glory.
A question for those who have worked on these beauties before: Are
the pump pneumatics on the Stoddard Ampico the same dimensions as later
Ampico pumps?  Also, are the ball bearings in the pump a standard size?
Thanks for any info you can provide.

Best wishes,
Mike Walter
