I received my new used carb last nite. I cleaned the old gasket off, put in mounting studs, and generally poked around with it a bit. It is definitely different than the one that came off. It is pretty much the same, but a couple of plugs are simply not there on the float bowl; no hole, no plug. The manifold mounting holes are properly spaced. Interestingly, the gas line goes in on the outside of the tractor; the old carb had the gas line coming into the carb on the engine side. The old carb had two additional inlet ports though, one in back and one on the outside; they were the plugged ones, which are not on the "new" carb.
I'm tied up with classes till the weekend, so I won't be able to install and try to start her before Saturday. Maybe this old Farmall A will run then /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
FYI, I got the carb from Blaze Basich, in NJ. He advertises on YTmag all the time. Seemed nice to work with.
