Hi, does anyone know where I can get gaskets for Lister H1 pump, or what gasket material is best for making them?
Look forward to your replies!

Paul,
My parents lived through WWII and where make and mend types which my siblings and I still do today, my grandfather was also a Model Engineer who made lots of things from nothing.
