I have a 1939 farmall A culti vision with a zenith carburetor which I am trying to restore.
the following numbers appear stamped on a small disc attached to upper casting, 48616 and 8928 below this. there is also a 2 in the casting below. The serial number on the tractor is FAA 5957 and its a petrol/kero. Can any one advise which rebuild kit or replacement would suit this tractor. This model tractor has no choke rod.
I also have an old carter carburetor with 0-653 and a B stamped on the casting. Will this work on my 1939 farmall. It came off a super A. year ?
Thanks to all.

No choke rod was added to hand crank models. You should be able to get a kit and the other carb would also work. Does the ZENITH have an adjusting t-handle on the bottom front. If not the carb has been changed from the original kero-gas one and is the heat shield still there.

Thanks for your interest,
Yes it does have an adjusting T-handle on the bottom but there is no heat shield that I can see. The tractor did have a diverting device on top the exhaust manifold with a pipe running to the right side which was crimped at the end.The tractor starts first go but stops as soon as it gets warm so I have started with the carby !

Thanks Paul

I'd check the spark when it stops. A bad coil or condenser would act that way.

The diverter valve on top of the manifold is part of a pneumatic lift.
