Even came in the original box! It looks like it's never been used. Did you get all the paperwork with it also?

Sweet, but I wonder what a hemphill is??? It was the name of the inspector. All their products had a sticker but it's usually lost after use. |

Looks just the way mine was when I found it.
For those of you that haven't run one...the only engine control it has is a choke lever. No throttle.
When you start it it's WFO and your instinct might lead you to believe it's got an air leak and a piston meltdown is imminent.
Nope. That's just how it works. 1 speed. WFO, with a governor ball-jet-thingy that keeps it from over-revving.
Until it warms up, and when I'm not pumping with it, I usually leave the choke out as far as I can without stalling it just to slow the RPMs and provide more cooling via more fuel.

Good to know, I plan to drain the kids pool with it this fall. Before some smart-aleck like me comes along, it's not a plastic kiddy pool, it's an above ground pool about 4' tall.  |

It pumps surprisingly well. I've used it to transfer maple sap when our big pump wouldn't start. It went much faster than I expected.

My neighbors emptied their similar pool in a few seconds, unfortunately they did not want to. Big hole in the side, whooosh.

Nice! Mine has been used to water newly seeded areas around the yard since it's been the 7th driest September on record around here.  |

Looking for a replacement muffler for a water bug p101. Does anyone know where I could get one or what current production part would be compatible?
Thank you.
