I think one foot square? Nitrile, butyrate, polysomethings.
But I haven't found any pump supplier that specifies his exact actual composition, other than "Mine are the good stuff".
Also, the only thing I find that is specified as no good is leather , hasn't been since the 40's. Makes sit sound like any modern material is OK. Perhaps the alcohol thing is a myth? I know it is more corrosive to metallic components, but gas has had nasty solvents forever...
So I don't know what to use. Meantime, I'm saving old pumps, with a new spare under the seat. $35 from Auto Zone, settling bowl but no primer lever.
