I'm sure someone out there has rebuilt one of these and can offer some advice. I am rebuilding the one shot system on my 1929 640. There are two leather cup washers on the pump plunger, one facing up the shaft and the other facing down the shaft of the plunger. The first one that needs to be fed into the tube is the one that is facing open end up the plunger. I am having difficulty getting it to feed into the tube without damaging it. Any suggestions based on successfully getting it done.

Thanks,
