With 9 headbolts, its appears to be a model 23 series, could be 23D, 23A, 23FB, etc. There should be a tag with ID numbers riveted to the front cylinder cover. ------------- 10 various B-series garden tractors, AC Homesteader8, 416 hydro,710 gt, 914, 916H, 917H, 920D, and many misc attachments |

| they could be stamped in the top or one of the two sides of the blower housing they can be hard to see with out cleaning with a wet rag will be labeled as model type and code |

It's all right there on the page you used to show this image. Click PREVIEW, before posting and read the width and height numbers. 800 wide will about fit the page but you have to keep the same ratio between the 2 numbers. If my puter wasn't suffering from the cold this morning, I could show the page, pfffftttt! ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

I'll see if i can ask grandma what it was used for. It has its own tank so maybe it was on a tiller or something of that nature. Sadly the air filter tube is detached from the carb so who knows whats in there lol. ------------- B212, WD45, B, 912 Hydro |
