My son and I found  an old aerator I used more than a decade ago for  collection trips.  Motor works fine although rubber is no longer rubbery.  Anyone know  where reconditioning kits can be found for American Angler aerator? 

 

 

This the yellow type.  I  would also like to explore making so both batteries drive motor.  Then we can split airflow with  manifold to drive multiple buckets.

It seems as though they don't carry replacement parts, but a new unit is quite affordable: http://www.amazon.co...d/dp/B0000AZ6KY

Kind of what I was thinking. Those are sadly more disposable than rebuild-able They are affordable. This time of year, you hardly need one, you have time to source a replacement. Keep that boy in the water and outdoors. Good parenting in this time when the computer and TV tend to do most of it.

Check with your local fish store to see if they have a rebuild kit that will fit. But I have to admit, for no more than it cost to replace that would be my choice. Like Matt said, keep that kids feet in the water!!!!!

Diaphragms and flapper valves are ridiculously priced unless you've got a lot of coin in the pump.
