I have the exact one. From the 70s ? Still works great.
one thing is to check if the head body has spread apart. If so you can carefully close it back down. Also in the head assembly is a wave washer. These either wear out or flatten a bit. If not to worn you can use a pair of pliers and increase the wave. This will make the ratchet more powerfull. I used the hell out of mine.

Thank you both! A quick phone call to MAC and they helped me identify and order the part that I needed (valve screw) to stop this thing from leaking. They even found and sent me the parts diagram and said the tool was made by SP.

My bluepoint had the same issue the little rubber valve rotted to nothing and leaked I made one out of one of those little rubber **** that are on the bottom of some electronics I just cut it and it works great.
