Hilborn is not rebuilding the early pumps. They prefer I buy a new one. I have an early Hilborn pump that is driven by the magneto drive. I would prefer to have it rebuilt. any advice or contact information is greatly appreciated.
Go to; www.Alkydigger.com Mike Chilandro has them and I believe rebuilds them but I'm told they can only be rebuilt once. I had the same problem and after a thorough examination of all the possibilities, I bought a new style rebuildable pump. I have never regretted it. PS; This is one of the problems with guys selling Hilborn set-ups and asking big bucks. It almost always needs a complete rebuild. Pat
