Sorry, just that it was a ferguson engine from the late fourties before they
merged with Massey. They used to make their own engine. I have, stashed away
[lost], a news letter from a midwest Triumph club that chased down the Ferguson
part numbers so people could rebuild pumps. I have a spare that needs a new
seal and need to find it too. Sorry I do not believe that a major archilogical
expidition could unearth it in the near future.
