I have been given 3 Robart Super Pumpers # 209 (they are black with set screw for flow adjustment) they each have 4 hose barbs,,

can anyone give me info on them, are they still being made, how well do they work ??,,

they are for gasoline, but can they be used for glow fuel ???????


I have a 3rd one that is all metal (sliver), with NO adjustment and only 3 hose barbs, it's manual doesn't say if it's for gas or glow, can I get more info one this one too please..

thanks !!

as far as I know they are no longer being made.I have 2 for glow and they come with a special pressure tap for the backplate.on the four hose setup 2 go to the tank one to the presure fitting on the backplate one goes to the spraybar.If you are using gas you should not need these as most of the gas engines using a walbro type carb already have a pump as part of the carb.I do not know if they could be used for glow as you would need the pressure adapter and and I do not know if the pulse from a glow engine is strong enough to operate the diaphram of a gas pump

thanks. I have the manuals, so I know how they are hooked up, I was just wondering if there is any known secrets that could be told, , as for running them on glow the manuals show them hooked up to glow engines so I'm sure they would work,,

but their inners are made for gasoline so I was just wondering if they would hold up to glow (or maybe they could be modified for glow ???),, they are very small and light so I would like to use them on my helis .
