    If the splines are gone in the crank shaft, a socket can be welded onto the end of it and then the drive shaft gets ground and filed to fit the socket. Or it can be filled with epoxy while reassembling. It’s not a correct repair but it works.

    The seal is made of thick cork. It’s a lot bigger and thicker than a push rod seal.

    Ollie carries diaphragm material for the pump.
