Throttle Shaft length for an M

Meangreen · Dec 11, 2016

Looking to buy a carb kit for my M. It is a 1950 and the carb is a 50983DC. The places I look need to know the throttle shaft length. I looked in my parts book and foud the two different shafts and what serial numbers they correspond to, but no lengths listed. I tried IH's website and looked up the parts but once again no lengths listed. Any idea what I need or just tear the carb apart and measure it (tractor isn't close right now so that's why I'm asking this) Thanks

Just take the carb with you when you are buying the kit saves a lot of mistakes

50983DC would have a shaft after the serial number break.
Yours should be about 3-5/16 long and the other around 1/8 inch shorter. Would need to look for a exact length. Kits are very common for a 50983DC carburetor.
