Greetings all. I just tuned into this site. hoping for some help. The carb. is m problem, but I need to know for sure which model I have. it's either a 300, or a 350. No tag anywhere that I can see, but the serial number is 360553 R3 can anyone help me? also, the carb has been rebuilt several times, and Im thinking I need another one. but I cant locate a source. even the Chinese imitations can't match one without more info. I found one that looks the same but the mounting screws are slightly closer together than mine :56mm x 59cm, approx..
Any suggestions?? THANKS. I have a photo of the unit, but cant seem to figure out how to attach it....

"the serial number is 360553 R3"

That's a part number. The serial number would be on the tag that is missing from your tractor.

A quick google search of that part number strongly implies that it is the "rear frame" for a Farmall 300 tractor.

Both tractors for all intents and purposes use the same carburetor. I don't think there is a "Chinese" carburetor available for that tractor.

Unless the carburetor is smashed to pieces, it can be rebuilt. You just need to get a good kit and do the job right. Then again whatever problem you are having may not be carburetor related...

the serial number should be on the left side on the bell housing. is the grill white? they are the same tractor. only the 300 is all red, and the 350 has white on the hood and the grill is white. pretty had to beat an ihc carburator... i thing you need someone with experience working on it. maybe give some info one your situation, maybe its not even the carb.
