Okay folks, here's a tough question. At least I think so.

I have a 1939 Farmall A, serial number 1486, and it has a Zenith 8928 carburetor. I thought it had an 8808 carb, but when I got it clean and found the tag, I learned it was an 8928. I had already ordered a complete 8808 rebuilding kit. It came with about a hundred parts. But it was the wrong one. So I ordered an 8928 kit, but it doesn't have all the parts that the 8808 has. Choke rod, plate, etc. Has anyone done any sort of "kit merge" on one of these things? I know I can find out by trial and error and careful measuring (I have verniers and mikes), but I thought I'd ask first.

Thanks for any help you can give and I send along some pics at some point.

There are carb. rebuild companies that will do these things for a somewhat reasonable price. I did both a "Carter" and an old "Zenith" using a local rebuild shop with excelent results and had esencially new carburators. I was fortunate in that the owner was about 90 years old and knew these carbs inside and out. You might consider checking into a loacal rebuild shop that specializes in Carbs. You can see that the knowledge base was not there to help you with your question so this may be something that a lot of people are not good at. The shop might be willing to take the parts off your hand if you can't return them. If you are not pushed for time, send me an email and I will get you in touch with the shop I used. You could ship the unit UPS to Atlanta and have a relatively new carburator in about two to three weeks. LMack
