Yes it is B/8
The cylinder is in EXCELLENT shape and yes,,,,its the wire mesh that has three holes about the size of a number two pencil in it,,,,If I knew what size and type of wire mesh,,,I can REMOVE the OLD wire and Re-Attach NEW wire to it and fix it. As soon as Bill ships ALL my parts,,,Im EXCITED about putting it ALL back together and seeing it run again WITHOUT any leaks whatsoever on the Resivore Box.,,,Then if it STILL WONT lift ALL the way,,,,theres ONLY ONE thing left,,,,,The PUMP ITSELF,,,,GOD Im hoping its NOT the pump after replacing ALL these parts,,,Awaiting your reply my friend & STILL awaiting parts from Bill
