Try looking for one on Ebay. If you have to resort to an engine driven one, stay away from the Briggs & stratton engines. Their flywheel magnets rust after about a year and the ignition will not work consistently. I lost a van full of hydraulic equipment and parts because of one of these on a centrifugal pump. Briggs only advised me that I should have taken it to a certified dealer...... I might add that you will need 12gpm at your hydraulic outlet to really make one of these effective. For firefighting purposes, you need a high pressure centrifugal. Most garden variety centrifugal pumps are only 50psi...
