Stuart Water Pump

Hi all, due to a plan change this Stuart Water Pump model   A4 E14 is at my home still and it is now for sale, more information on the pump and what was done to the inner workings of it are in the " pumps and engine driven equipment section"  so do not think there is a need to put any more photos in this thread other than one of the pump as it is now.

Pump had New gaskets made and fitted, New valve seals made and fitted, valve seats refaced, New piston rod graphite packing fitted,  the piston cups had gone hard through pump standing a good while, these were soaked till they were flexible and refitted, also put in new oil so just couple it up and away it will go


Mate and me had it pumping great but as I did not have a flat belt for to drive it he had to tension the vee belt we used  but as said it worked great,  am looking at £100 for it or very very close offer, but MUST be collect,   PM me to talk please.
The Stuart pump is now with its owner as I needed the space that it was using on my work bench for the engine I collected today, it is still for sale but can now be collected from Richmond in Nth Yorkshire, but it can still be arranged to get it to me if that is better for any person that is more northern that the Yorks area.

Well done bringing this back to life

Thank you for comment Martyn, your help with this was invaluable, thought about keeping it myself, but do not have an engine with a flat pulley to take a flat belt from to pump and no matter what I tried the vee belt just refused to stay on pump wheel, but pump was just on garage floor not on any wood frame of any sorts.

Will work much better with a flat belt. These would have been driven originally by a top mounted electric motor with a v pulley, the close proximity of the motor and the flat pulley helps the v belt stay put, also in that configuration there is no movement between the drive and the pump.

This is a Stuart pump with it's original Stuart electric motor I owned a while ago.

Can be done Don, here is mine run off a Vee belt. (and a wobbly pulley )
