I walked by my 1030 today and noticed the fuel primer pump was leaking.When I bought it it was leaking really bad (In 1982) I put new seals in and had a hard time to get it to seal.Other than the oem pump what other options have anybody done? I have thought of omitting it.
 
Don't get rid of it! If you run out of fuel or plug up lines you are screwed. Newer pump screws right on and I got one from case for $50-60 a year ago. As long as you are talking about the hand pump
 
I got rid of it and put in an electric pump on my 1030. Works great! For priming the filters just turn on the key and no more cold weather issues.
 
As far as running out of fuel.I did once and I bought a new fuel tank cap and took the old cap and driled a hole in the center and put a air sniffer valve in it. So if I run out of fuel or changes filters I just add a little air aND it's all primed.Keep in mind it doesn't take but a few pounds of air to do it.

You mean you don't want to find out the burst pressure of the tank?
 
When I ran it out of fuel,I knew there was
a simple way to bleed the system without
messing with the hand pump.I used a simple
hand tire pump.I just knew if I used air
tank that it could be bad news as former
owner had tank repaired before I bought it
