Wilcox-Crittendon models

[Taxwizz]

Greetings;
I just bought a Nonsuch 30, with a Wilcox-Crittendon bronze head. Unfortunately, the input flush function of the pump is not working, so I would like to get a rebuild kit, hold my nose, and Go At It.

But...I cannot determine which W-C head model it is.

I think that it is either an Imperial, or possibly a Skipper. There is a foot pedal on the right, but it seems to have no working function. The head looks really well built, so I hate to replace it with a plastic unit.

What can you suggest? How do I tell the models apart?

Cheers,
Eddy

I'm 90% certain it's a Skipper...

That's what I seem to remember was the OEM toilet on all Nonsuch boats. I have exploded drawings of all the W-C bronze "thrones"...if you'd like to send me an email (click on my name to the left of this post), I'll be glad to reply with 'em attached so you can see for yourself which one it is. I'll also give you direct contact information for the only person who can tell you which parts you need...IF, in fact, they're still available. 'Cuz Thetford-Norcold discontinued the entire W-C line at the end of '08 and no longer even has rebuild kits for some of 'em.

hello peggy.
i have read much of the listserve comments on this head and would like to receive the manual or blowups for this toilet.
we own a 1981 nonsuch 26c with a solid and original metal crittendon head.
it has been great for many years.
but lately it is not inhaling any water in the intake hose.
the exit of the water is successfully pumped out but we can't get any fresh water into the toilet (except by pouring it from a bucket).
we have some replacement parts in our took kit but before we take anything apart, we would like to have some blow up or exploded diagrams.
if they are available on the web, perhaps you could give me the link?

thank you
