The carb on my 1948 H has a gasoline part number on the top half, on the little brass circle thing. The bottom half (bowl assembly) has a kerosene part number on the casting (6212 DB). Are the two really compatible? I have overhauled it twice using 2 different kits - one gas, one kerosene (both purchased off this YT website). Neither one makes it run right. Any ideas?

I'll have to do some more checking, but I think all H carbs have the 6212 DB bowl. The gas kit is the one you want, unless you are going to run your tractor on kerosene. If the tractor does not run right after the rebuild, either the carb is not yet clean, or you have a different problem.

I just looked at my H parts manual. The bottom part of the carbs are ALL 6212. The only differance I see between the kerosene, distillate, or gasoline carbs is the part number for the main metering nozzle in a low compression carb is different than the same part for the high compression gasoline carb. So if you use a kit for a gasoline carb in your kerosene or distillate carb, you will have a carb that is the same as if it came from the factory equipped to burn gasoline.

Thanks for the info RustyFarmall. I guess what confused me is my parts manual has 2 top assemblies listed - 45108 DD for kerosene and 50981 DC for gas, which is what I have. Then I look at bottom bowls and see I have a 6212 DB for kerosene, but the book also lists 56608 D for gas. So I thought I had a mismatch and needed to select certain parts from both carb kits to make it work. I currently have the gas kit installed and she"s still not running right, so probably "operator error" during installation (me), or not cleaned out good. Or something maybe haywire with the governor. Think I can rule out electrical problems because I just did a 12-volt conversion from Bob Melville"s diagrams, substituting the little Hitachi alternator which fits nice under the H"s hood. Also just installed electronic ignition, a new coil, new plugs and wires. This great YT site had all the info I needed to tackle all this, even for a first-timer. I buy all my parts here, although that thread from 4/20 by Randy_NE tells me I should have gone to Case IH for my carb kit! I had a problem with some parts from Tisco"s carb kit not fitting, or not being included at all.

The difference in the casting is for the extra drain. Who know what jets are in it. could be plugged, drilled out etc.
