I bought a new one about 18 years ago, keep them clean and the oiler working and they will last a long time.

I use one for the vacuum system in my sugarbush. I have no idea how old it is. I got two at a farm aution for $15, one was seized and the other needed bearings, but it ran 16 inches of vacuum 40 hours at a time this spring with no problems. They are pretty simple, not much to go wrong, and usually pretty obvious what's the matter when they do.

About 1200 taps. The pump seemed to have plenty of capacity. I don't use a vacuum regulator, but open a bleed valve until the vacuum drops to the level that I want to run at. That way if something starts leaking I will see a drop in vacuum. If I used a regulator it would just keep opening up until the whole capacity of the pump was being used before anything would show on the guage. I don't think those old pumps should be run at maximum possible vacuum. Mine will pull 21 inches if it is closed right up, but I run it at 16-17 inches.

I used the generic vacuum pump oil that my farm machinery dealer sells from a 55 gallon drum, don't know what brand.

Instead of a muffler I have about 100 feet of unperforated "elephant gut" drain pipe, this keeps the oil vapor away from my sap storage. The drawback to this is a little too much back pressure, I have to keep a weight on the oil fill plug to keep it from blowing out. This spring I bought an oil reclaimer at an auction, and I am going to try to hook that up for next year.

We used 20wt on gator pumps . and every week of hard use we would slowly pour a gallon of diesel fuel down intake to clean according to mfgs service manual
