Took this on partial trade. He said it was bolted up to his WD when he bought it, and it looked interesting to me. The only numbers I can make out are 3795 Coule be soething before and coule be something after. The fuel inlet is right over the ID tag, si a wrench must have smashed the tag and numbers.  ------------- Owner of http://www.OKtractor.com" rel="nofollow - OKtractor.com PM for an instant response on parts.

Jim, That appears to be a carb for an unstyled WC. Are you selling? Send me a PM. Thanks ------------- 220 3-190XT 2-D19d D19g 5-D17 UC 3-WC 2-WD 3-WD45 CA C H3 7-AllCrops 14-plows 3-Gleaners Lawnmowers SC-equipment |

That's a Zenith 7078 dual fuel carb that came on the WC's for running Distillate or gasoline. The reason for the dual outlets...... Steve@B&B |

I have a 7078 on the shelf that has the same plugs in it. Just part of the casting I would think...

| I wonder what purpose they may have served? I've had quite a few 7078's over the years and had not seen this. There is one ebay with a bolt up flange for air cleaner connection. I hadn't seen that version either. It is listed as a 7178. |

I believe that the bolt up air cleaner flange carburetor is for the C CC early D and DC Case tractors. That was my first reaction when I first looked at this carb until the air cleaner flange was missing. Thanks Ken |
