You got me there sarge... I guess if you look at the little things they are different. I was mainly refering to the operation: link, bellcrank, manual choke.

What you have is probably an M/MV series out of a newer vehicle with idle "speed control" where the idle adjustment screw is. My book shows yours to be sort of a combination of different carbs.

Gotta remember that when these carbs were sent back for rebuilding they used whatever parts they could find. Since a lot of the parts were interchangeable, they used newer and older parts to make them work.

The bellcrank "hook" was there on some vehicles so that if you stomped on the throttle it would force the choke open.

But, glad you got it going though. Let me know if you need anymore pics.
