I've read a few threads, but didn't find my answer. Does anyone here know how this comes apart? Is the brass tube threaded into the chrome faucet head, or is it a sweat fit? I want to "freshen" it up, before it goes into my project, but don't want to break or bend anything! TIA for any help you can give! Mike

Hi, From a vintage trailer guy located in Santa Ana, CA. It's good to see lots of activity here.

Mine all unscrewed, and I took the parts to my local ACE and started going through their drawers until I found some "O" rings and seals to make work. It now works great.
Brass is VERY SOFT, so don't clamp it in a vise.

Much appreciated, John. I'll warm it up a bit and unscrew the barrel. This one pumps water if you pump it fast, so I think just new plunger rubber, and I'll refresh the check valve seal as well.
