Not Quite

Actually this is the Pump for the previous generation "rounded" Hoovers. This pump uses a "flapper" valve and mounts in a different location than the 1971+ T Series and 051x from 71+. The machine in question of the auction uses a pinch style hose clamp setup, the only thing interchangable on these 2 pumps would be the base piece, which would be a waste. Pumps in the US are rare for either. This pump is the same as the foreign sold ones (3314L etc.). If you were going foreign searching, I think the 3316L uses the pinch valve setup, but I'm unsure exactly. The pinch valve setups were mainly US models, but were more reliable IMO than the flapper style units in terms of corrosion. I actually bought this pump for the 62, all of the o-rings are shot in mine and the flapper spring is weak. Trust me, finding Hoover pumps can be a nightmare, I have 3 running machines to feed parts for :P

Pump Setup - 1971+ "Square Lids"

I made up some diagrams from the 2 generations of the US Hoover machines, it's amazing how radically different they are.

(Pardon the large size...)

Pump Setup - pre-1970 0510 Series

This is the diagram for the older Hoovers (1st gen) US models. This is the machine that the pictured pump from eBay will fit, but it's not interchangeable with the newer series.
