Hello
Try to get one of the early technic pneumatic sets, like the 8851 or
8843
TRhese set have a grey 4 x 2 brick with valves. This pump pushes the
air through one side of the brick and sucks the out of the brick using
the other valve. These cilinders have only one air inlet/outlet.
The latest pneumatic sets all have two air inlets and only use
pressure.
