Repair Guys - Besson part search

Post by vlatuba »

Hi,

I'm looking for a solution for an older Besson part and not having much luck. I'm looking for the white plastic valve guides Besson used many years ago. Not the "Pack Man" style ones but the ones shaped essentially like a Capital "Q" that insert into the top of the piston. I can't even find a picture of them on the internet. Any idea where I can get these or has anyone come up with a workable retrofit? I see these instruments every now and again and I finally need a solution.

Thanks, Ed
