The part no. mentioned for the TR8  is similar to what I've been told the
Stag uses. But you have to swap out the reservoir. The Stag's pump has 1
inlet and 1 outlet. What I'm seeing from some Google searches is that
there are many pumps which  look similar but have 3 ports. I'm not sure
what that is about. I rebuilt my Stag's one for about $12 with a kit.
it's simple enough and there are so many YouTube videos out there. Im
trying to look for another cheap one to make a test rig.
