[QUOTE="yass00_Au, post: 245199, member: 320"] I bought a few spare parts kits for yabby pump at BCF for $5 each which includes washers, wingnut and rubber. The rubber that comes in the kit sucks big time so that's why I use the thongs/flipflops and the washers are as you mention Ken 5mm smaller. I have made threaded bolt at plunger end of yabby pump long enough to fit 2 pieces of thongs/flipflops as they ware out quite quickly with a single piece so with two plungers I can then crank up wingnut as needed for expansion without having to carry around spares on the river. Still to modify and have a crack at test plugs though. Cheers, Ross [/QUOTE]
