I got this old gas powered water pump for free with no history other then sitting forever. lets take it apart and see if we can repair it to run again. I guess it is 80 years old and has been sitting for 50-60 years.

    I dont beleive it is a trash pump its probably a clear water or "semi trash" pump. Typically trash pumps have 3" or larger inlets/outlets.
