What carb do I have?

I've got a Marvel-Schebler with a 16 B stamped on the side - I can't discern any TSX___ stamping on this carb. I've got gas coming out of the air intake, so, am looking for repair parts, but, don't know which model Marvel-Schebler I've got. Any help would be appreciated.

before u buy anything, gas coming out of the air snorkel is usually caused by a couple of things, one of which for sure is free to fix, and the other, maybe ;)

A: too much choke used, flooded. solution - use less choke :)

B: float is stuck. sometimes, smacking the carb with a chunk of wood frees it up, if not, others here can talk u thru troubleshooting the float.

Just a WAG, but looks like an early TSX33 carb. casting.
If you are lucky, and will turn the carb over to the other side.....you may see the TSX stamping, molded into the body of the bowl!!
The stamp will be on the end of the choke rod area, stamped into the cast area......(If it is a early TSX 33).
OR.....If a later casting.....the TSX #, will be on a brass plate in that same area, on the bowl!!!

Been heavily using choke to try to get it started. Tractor still won't start and now gas coming out of the air intake. I'm in a quandry, since I split the carb apart to look at the float I'm thinking I should get a replacement gasket set. I guess the main gaskets are pretty much the same between carb models, so, may be able to get past that hurdle. But, if I need to replace the float, I don't know if I need to have the exact carb model to get the correct float.
 

i wouldn't suspect the float at this point. heavy choking = flooding, need to figure out what else is wrong that's causing u to need to choke it like that. it should start happily after turning over a few times and then pulling out the choke briefly. if it won't, something else is going on.
