Following the advice on this forum, I decided to try cleaning my gas tank and rebuilding the carb on my recently purchased allis. When I went to get a crab rebuild kit, I noticed on the site here that they say two different carbs were used on the WD and WD45. I decided to check my serial number and on the brake housing there it says WD 154951. I do not see anything up by the brake cover. taking that number and following the discussions that number doesn't seem to match anything. Any ideas what model this is? I also checked the enging, but the block is pretty corroded and I am having trouble getting a number off of that by the carb. If I pull the carb off, is there a way to tell which carb I have? It looked like maybe if I measured the intake bolts that would work. Thanks for everyone's help here. Being a fairly young tractor enthusiest, it is nice to be able to ask advice.

That number would indicate a 1953 WD-45 tractor. It should have a Marvel-Schebler Carb. on it; probably model TSX-464. The engine serial number should be pretty easy to find altho in rare cases (I have one) the block may have been replaced and the casting boss is blank.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the info. Just out of curiosity, how did you find the serial number meaning? I was googling for about an hour and could not come up with anything. I think you might be right about the block. It does appear blank on the stamping part, but someone affixed another tag above it with another number like L6Y84. I thought that tag may be a rebuilder"s tag or something. I got the carb off tonight and there is a tag on it, so I should be able to clean it up and get the number.

Click on "Serial Numbers" under "Research & Info" on the LH side of this page. Interesting about the brass tag on your engine; have no idea what it means, unless, like you say it's some rebuilder's code. I'll e-mail you with some other info. Brian

Oh, I see. I did look at that, but did not realize that starting serial number meant for the beginning of each year so my tractor would fall somewhere during 1953. Sorry for the dumb question. Thanks for taking the time to answer.
