Can anyone tell me which jeeps uses this carb? I found a couple in the barn.

Where did you get that number? Off the throttle body? Post some pics and we can help more easily. I believe you have a YS 950S for the M38A1.

Scout, I had pulled these earlier from Wes' album when you and I were discussing 637 vs 950 last week. These may help Mr. Brumbach ID his find.

Yeah, the number came from the cast iron body. The only other numbers were patent numbers. They resemble the carb on my M38. My dad had a 1953 M38A1 and he acquired a number of spare parts, including these carbs. Doesn't look like they were ever used, although they're covered in dust and surface rust. I'll get some pictures and post them when I have a chance.scoutpilot wrote:Home run, Professor!
