Primer Button ripped
 

Hi all,

I was priming up my 98 12 valve and the rubber primer button came off in my hand and had a series of cracks in it. Where can I get a replacement? Do I just stick it on there? PLease help! Thanks!

Never had that happen but it seems the reason for the rubber cover is to keep crud out. Even a baggie tied around it would do that. Anything to keep the road dirt out would do for a while,,,no?

Mine has had a rip in it for 50,000+ miles, no apparent problems. If you are worried, I'd find a used pump on ebay and take the button off of it. Or like carl said, plastic bag it or similar.

Hm, I ripped mine and just covered it in contact cement to fix the hole.

Replacement rubbers are not available anywhere I have seen- has a torn one for about 2 years- when the pump dies the new one will have a new rubber.....
