Zebra RV still shows the two hole pump on their website though it is out of stock with an option to be notified when it is back in stock. Maybe if they get enough requests to be notified they will make some more.

That link just above to the water pump doesn't seem to work, can anyone find it? I haven't tried to operate my original yet, but someone in England was selling a rebuild gasket kit for that pump a year or two ago. I got one just in case I need to work on my original pump. But if the pump is available new, hell, I'd buy one!

I found the Zebra pump originally on an RV site. I called them and they said that in 2017, Zebra stopped making the pump pictured above in this thread, and that the new one they have has the black ball on the end of the handle. This is the same one they sell on Bus Depot for like $40. https://www.busdepot.com/zvw223101
The one I purchased was off of Ebay. I would recommend to search Ebay if you would like to purchase the Zebra pump that looks identical to the original non Whale. |

Hello
I'd like to order a water tank for my '67 SO42, mine is broken...
The tank reference for our bus is #10 ?
The water inlets and outlets are standard or it's necessary to specify for which vehicle model when ordering? |
Number 10 looks correct, yes.
When I ordered mine (years ago, whenever I had written this post), I don't recall having had to specify (besides saying specifically what model car it was for: 1967 Volkswagen Westfalia SO-42), and the inlets and outlets were correct.
You can certainly ask them/make sure, and get measurements from folks here on TheSamba if/as needed.
Hope yours works out great; we still use ours all the time!
I flush it out a few times about once every 4 months, and/or before a camping trip.
As we live in the Bay Area of California when the "Big One" hits (earthquake), I like knowing we have approx. seven and a half gallons of water in reserve along with other earthquake-ready supplies.
Post pictures of your project if you have the chance so we can all see how it goes! _________________ ----------------------------------------------------------
