White Vinegar?

Okay, so i was raised on such films as "chitty chitty bang bang" which, as everybody knows, has a nutbag living in the boonies in a house resembling a workshop more than living accommodation...
So, obviously keeping the tradition of attempting to fix scrap before throwing it away, the first thing I had in my mind was to see if the pump could be coaxed into working again...
4 bottles of White vinegar later and off I went to the shed , cut a fanta bottle in half and threw in what used to be a 3FV fuel pump...start the stopwatch and wait a minimum of three hours and hopefully, like a cookery program, it'll come out the oven brand new and ready to use...
...this is of course highly unlikely but, as I started the rant, one must try before one fails...

24% Ättica and it's already turned brown..
