No, not a brand of import from Viet Nam. It's the material that is resistant to gasoline and ethanol.
I bought some material from McMaster? Or the one of those industrial suppliers. Also made a steel rule die, and stamped out a few spares. A little hand made, but the one in my truck is at least two years old now. $5 postage paid if you have the easily rebuildable core. It has a nut inside to unscrew and change the diaphragm. Others have a swaged rivet, you'd be on your own for doing that job. At least you know the material, not just the seller saying "resistant to modern fuels".
Hey, that reminds me. Anybody have a core with a primer lever to send me? I do like the primer lever on a truck that gets intermittant use. Pump up the fuel flow, save revs on the starter.
