A few days ago I decided to order a carb kit for my 1954 Wd-45.  I thought I'd get it cleaned out and put a new kit in it.  It won't hurt anything, it might accidentally run better too.  For some reason I had it in my head that it was a Zenith carb.  Looking at it today we decided that it looks just like the Marvel on my father-in-law's green tractor.  I couldn't find any tags on it either.  I'd be really mad at myself if I ordered the wrong kit.  I'll try and get a couple pictures up here for you guys to see.

Later,
Brad

It looks like a brass tag where the arrow is pointing.

Definitely a Marvel. If its a WD45, its probably a TSX-464. Popular Carb for the 45's. That's the tag on the Carb right where Jim's arrow is.. We have the correct kits in stock if you need a kit...

Okay, thanks guys.  I guess we couldn't see the tag because we were looking for it.  Funny how that works sometimes. 
Much Appreciated,
Brad
