[TudooR31]

Hi Ford Barn,
I inherited this odd Zenith carb with the purchase of my '31 standard Tudor last spring. I've seen pics. of similar in another FordBarn post. Was this the Sears or 'Marvel' version of the Zenith carb? I've attached a pic. & marked A. Idle adjustment & B. lean/rich adjustment, I think, since you can't L/R this car with the choke rod. What are the correct adjustments for these 2 screws? If the photo does not attach, A. is up by the carb throat near the intake manifold & B. is down at the leading edge below the float body facing the front of the car.
Thanks.

Looks like the Zenith carb off a Farmall or Gravely Model L walk-behind, especially that main-jet at B.

Looks like a fitz-all replacement carb.

It's similar to a forklift carb adapted for the Model A

"A" is the idle mixture adjustment, "B" is the main jet adjustment, A is turned to a good idle running, b is for the driving mixture ---this is the modern replacement carb, much like the replacement carb for Atomic 4 sailboat engines, also used on forklifts and other small engines under 40 hp
