Are the carburetors for the C and CA identical?

| B-C-CA carbs will interchange whether Zenith or Marvell-Schebler brand. Leon |

They were not! As stated above they are interchangeable.

Dick, I take it they were different from factory, but would all work despite the tractor model? Thanks. Steve ------------- 1940 B "Lucy" 1941 B w/ Woods L59 "Flavia" 1942 B w/ finish mower "Dick" 1941 C w/ 3-point "Maggie" 1947 C SFW w/ L306 "Trixie" 1972 314H |

The B/C Zenith carbs were in the same family, but when it came to the CA, they had a different carb on them because of the higher rpm range they worked in. They will all interchange, but the CA carb on a B or C might be a tick on the fat side for the fuel ratio because of the different jetting...

Assuming all models have been upgraded. If you have a low compression 3 1/4" piston engine the carburetor from a CA might not start well with the larger venturi. |

Thanks everyone. Do you know the maker of the carb for the CA? Still a Zenith?

Not sure with the zenith, but the Marvel Schebler is TSX154 for b/c/ca. Tractors came with both Zenith and M-S depending on what the factory had on hand at the time. ------------- www.awtractor.com A&W TRACTOR 920-598-1287 KEEPING ALLIS-CHALMERS IN THE FIELDS THROUGH THE 21ST CENTURY |
