Other than a name which prompts interesting comments and questions, Carl Shoup's replacement for the piston end of 5-ounce syringes is a pretty cool deal.

I bought one at the NW Regionals without hesitation. I mean, how do you refuse a big guy in a chair wheeling around selling modeling stuff? It was so pitiful I would have given him ten bucks just to go away. Instead, I got an upgrade for my syringe and a dollar in change. And he still went away, although I think Carl was headed for PTG.

These things are a real good buy, turning what used to be a disposable tool, one bound to fail during a contest, or merely to push crud from an aged rubber piston into a fuel tank into something which will last a long time. And at the end of this period is easily rebuildable.

Carl, my friend! Good job.

As it says on my instruction sheet, call Carl Shoup at 970.434.0906 for purchasing information.

I'll echo your thoughts DD. I got a new syringe and a replacement head. Now I have one syringe for glow and another for the "stinkers".

As Carl says, works just fine with only one O-ring, although I can't verify that's true for pacifier/bladder-type pressure.

And new capacity scales, too. Great value!

These syringes are excellent. If you have ever had the rubber parts go bad on a fuel syringe, it need not ever happen again. I purchased two of these new syringes and am quite impressed with them. They are definitely recommended. Give Carl a call and check these items out. You will not be disappointed....T.Durrill
