Wisconsin VG4D carb ID help

[Kory K]

Good morning, I have a Hagie 437 Hi Tractor that seems to have no manuals to be found anywhere. Parts don't exist and the carburetor is a one of a kind miracle carb from Marvel Schebler that also doesn't seem to exist. Hoping the great minds on here may have some helpful information for me while I try and get the thing running again. The engine on it is a Wisconsin VG4D. The float in the carb has failed. It looks like I will be able to desolder the floats and attach new ones from a small bowl M.S. updraft carb to fix that problem. Does anyone remember these sprayers/ detasslers? Also, does anyone restore old sprayers or are tractors the only thing worth saving? If anyone has any helpful information or manuals for this thing, I would be extremely grateful.

What does the float bowl look like? What shape?

These part #s may be of help for float only. C85-152 and 30-666. No guarantees.

I know nothing on these machines, but ya a quick search i found nothing for a 437. The hagie website has a 440 manual listed. Is that close? Also says it should have a vh4d in the 437

The 440 is a newer version with a different drive design. I do appreciate the help. Seems the 437 was a black sheep of the family. lol

That does look like it would fit. Funny that mine was soldered together with the floats backwards. Someone has been in here before and messed some stuff up. Thank you for your help and time.

Well for $84 bucks, I think I will be experimenting with the parts I have. The floats are the same as the small bowl updraft carbs. I purchased the float for $19 at Tractor Supply. Going to unsolder them and resolder them onto my arm. Should be easy enough to do. Famous last words...

Haha, maybe... but now you have a part number to search. Try finding what other carbs used that float and grab a parts carb for cheap, or find another source to buy one from.

Well it can be done. Finally got home. Desoldered the tractor supply float and resoldered them to my arm. Good luck to anyone else that has obsolete items!!!! Thank you to all that helped!

Looks good!! I don't think that's something I would've even thought to do.
