This is my first green restoration. The carb has the letters dtlx on the casting. Does anyone know if there is a website on setting the carb? It is soaking now and I want to rebuild it this weekend. Thanks in advance for any information. Dan

Dan - There are several places that can help you with your carb. problems. "Burrys carbs" and "Roberts carb" comes to mind, and I think both have a listing of parts and specs. on their web sites. There are others too. (Type "DLTX" in a search engine.) I'm not sure about a 45 B, but I know the mid 1930 B's used a DLTX-10. Be carefull, as the "A" carb (dltx-18) will fit as well other DLTX carbs, but it won't run right. Also if its an "all fuel" or gas only, the carb is different. I have tinkered with several and finally figured out that puchasing a re-built was worth the money. (Carbs and mags must work well to have a good running B.)

This is an all fuel b. The dltx is very clear in the casting. Wherer would I find the number to go along with the dltx?

The number is stamped right behind the letters altho sometimes it can be somewhat light. For a 45 B it should be a 34. I would have to agree that these carbs are kind of tricky even tho they look very simple. They have several tiny holes that must be cleaned out perfectly for them to run right. The fellow I had mine rebuilt at used an ultra-sonic cleaner, and then he always put them on his tractor and trial runs them to make sure they are good to go. I can give you the name of the guy that does mine if you want, hes very reasonable and does an excellent job.

Not only is Jeff right about the small orifices, but many times the lower spring is rusted away, and the brass nozzle in the center is a bear to get out without ruining, to clean up.

And even with heat and cooling, the small brass plugs in the side of the body can be a bugger to get out.

Finally just when you think you have done a good job, the tractor may only run fair, as there could be air leaks around the jet screws or you missed cleaning a passage. The money I initially saved doing my own, cost me hours and hours of time and frustration.
