you do a real good job, I worked for over 40 years on machinery repair, over time my hands took a tole from cleaner, gas and other chemicals. I would not wear rubber gloves because I would drop parts. We learned to wear rubber glove in the last 10 years to keep our hands from drying out and cracking. I don't think anyone would think bad of you if you also used rubber glover to keep the chemicals off you hands. If they do, they have not done this type of work and had to live with dry cracked hands. Good Luck.
I don't have a tractor, but have certainly learned a lot from this channel, Rachel is a good teacher and explains things so the average guy/girl in the street can understand what to do.
when I rebuild any carb, I use an ultrasonic cleaner and pine sol. yes pine sol. safe for metal, rubber and plastics. then reassemble and set the basic adjustments. most carbs are handled pretty much the same way. good video. thanks.
Also u get the befenit of the carb smelling like pine nice and clean ! I used it before on a farmall carb and it did way better than the expensive parts cleaner
Thanks for the awesome video. You did an excellent job of explaining the process. I am rebuilding a Zenith Carb today for my Universal Atomic 4 for my sailboat. It has the same or similar carb as the 4 bolt that you rebuilt in this video. I also happen to live in Lapeer County!
I made a Zenith carbutarer from a Wisconsin engine work on a WD. It's smaller and I had to grind half of both mounting studs flat and some other modifications. It runs great with 1/4 choke on and I didn't spend $1.
I wish the other videos were straight to the point like she is, other people spend 5 minutes showing what a 9/16 wrench looks like when you want to see how something is fixed!
I really liked your video. A separate thing, i was watching a video on mower carburetors and the guy removed the fitting where the gas line went into the carb body and there was a filter back inside the hole. Who knew right? Just curious when that started. Maybe you could look under one. Yes, you talked about a screen in there. Good stuff.
This carb is really similar to the zenith on a Wisconsin I was working on. I looked on your website and you do not have Wisconsin parts. Who is a good resource for wisconsin? The throttle shaft on this unit was super loose so I would love to get a full kit with the bushings for it
I wonder how hard is it to go from magneto to a distributor and which would be better i have the same tractor wd , i sent my magneto out to get rebuilt and i got taken for a fool so i'am out a magneto so i'm trying to figure out the best way to go
I wonder if you had a wooden box maybe 12" x 12" x say 4" deep and then cut and sewed a canvas bag like it was going over a foam seat cushion that would fit inside and filled it with something non compressible that wouldn't want to squish away but not too heavy like crushed limestone (maybe like crushed walnut hulls or something). It might make you a good work surface to hold parts and hammer on them, maybe. Sand might even work if you put it inside some bags first so it couldn't leak out. Maybe oil sand like they use in casting molds. Could be useful or a complete disaster like most things I do.
I use an ultrasonic cleaner on all my carbs. I clean the outside first in my parts washer, then it goes in the schmoo tank for cleaning. If it is aluminum and corroded, it gets hit with the soda blaster.
Dan Gingell and Rachel Gingell, I think I am overlooking something obvious... But there are only two felt and rubber pieces and three places (two sides of the choke shaft and one on the throttle shaft). It looks like Rachel used the felt at both sides of the chole.... What is supposed to go on at the throttle?
Really informative and great presentation. My only jab on this is that youre wearing safety glasses at the same time that youre neglecting to wear gloves while using a solvent to clean the carb. In the long term that leads to pretty significant neurological damage.
Excellent video but I don't trust carb cleaners to always work especially doing this thorough of a rebuild. Even soaking in carb cleaner doesn't do the trick sometimes. On a particularly stubborn case of a clogged carb an old mechanic recommended this. Put on a pot of water and get it hot. Put in a little tide and dissolve it completely. After removing all the gaskets and o rings from the carburetor, put it into that solution for about 15 minutes. After taking the carburetor out, rinse it off thoroughly. This method worked like a charm. Also, you don't risk exposing yourself to the toxic chemicals found in carb cleaners.
You described how to measure the float level but you did not explain how to adjust the float if it is not correct. Obviously I will assume some slight bending on the float would be needed to get the correct float level.
There is an old quality manufacturer of screwdrivers made in Japan which have a ball handle and many interchangeable bit shafts available . They are reasonably inexpensive and are on Amazon , Vessel is the name of the company .
"Varsol" ! Good solvent. Haven't heard about that in years. I don't believe they sell it any longer to the general public. Here is an interesting fact: WD-40 is over 50% Stoddard Solvent (Varsol). They add around 25% mineral oil plus various dryers and a coating solution. There you have it: WD-40! Not a very good lubricant, but I bet it would clean up this carb pretty well.
I( like your videos. You do a fantastic job. I don't like the background music. I would guess that most of your audience are of the older type that don't need the external entertainment. Hey thank you!
I would advise protecting my hands from chemicals such as the carb cleaner. They can be absorbed through the skin and can cause cumulative damage to the kidneys and liver with long exposure.
The thing about Rachel. She's not only a excellent machanic. But a excellent teacher too. Thats what I find intriguing. Always enjoy her tutorials. 👍
She is my favorite tractor mechanic and I see from this video that my main jet adjustment has been plugged off so thanks and great videos

I dont have a allis chalmers but enjoy watching and learning from your videos. thanks.
THUMBS UP!!! I'M REALLY IMPRESSED BY THIS GIRL. SURE, SHE MAKES SOME MISTAKES SOMETIME BUT SHE SEEMS TO ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT SHE IS SAYING.
I'm really jealous Dan. My kid can't change a light bulb. Great job Rachel.
I don't have a tractor, but have certainly learned a lot from this channel, Rachel is a good teacher and explains things so the average guy/girl in the street can understand what to do.
You are so amazing can’t thank you enough for all of your wonderful support you are a superstar macanic
Today is Zenith carb on Ford 641 day. Your video has me ready. THANKS.👍
Thank you, you not only break down the tractor I love, but you are an awesome woman to boot. Keep it up.
The quality of your videos just keeps getting better! Keep it up!
Rachel is very helpful and easy to listen to instruction from . Thank you
I happened upon this video by accident while searching for antique gravely carb info. Amazing how similar this Allis’s carb is so similar!

Very well explained, you know your stuff.
Beautiful and she really knows her subject and is an excellent teacher.
Wow..great video. You are a good mechanic and instructor! Nice job 👍
I like a girl who is not afraid to get her hands dirty! You also twist a screw driver with experience! Carry on!
CRC- Tyme in a 5 gallon bucket used to be the best Carb cleaner ever then spray down with Gumout and hit with air. Excellent video :)
Good job. You should have way more subscribers.
Always enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work. You make getting those old seats out look so easy.

Very easy to listen to, and informative! Nice job Rachel..
Thanks for the nice video; it's similar enough to the Zenith / Stromberg carb on my '48 Gibson to use as an instructional video.
Excellent! Just the right amount of detail and great narrative and hints.
Good information. I have to rebuild a Zenith carb on my 66 International 140. This video helped.
And not one shop rag in sight, and her sweater didnt have any grease on it. you young lady are very Good. Thanks.
Amazing a young girl knows how to bust down and rebuild a carburetor! I'm blown away :-)
Excellent knowledgeable instructor in a great video.
She a joy to listen to.
Just a quick question is this carburetor identical to the one on a 52 super c if so what is a good adjustment for the throttle jets
Yes a new upload
at about 2:24 you removed the needle seat quite easily. Mine is stuck like it's glued in, can you offer a tip on removing a seat like that?
Little fast and no close up shots. I had to pause it 100 times. I enjoy the channel she does a good job
I wish the other videos were straight to the point like she is, other people spend 5 minutes showing what a 9/16 wrench looks like when you want to see how something is fixed!
I have a allis CA, i have fuel dripping out of carb inlet, could the float have a hole in it? Errol
I really liked your video. A separate thing, i was watching a video on mower carburetors and the guy removed the fitting where the gas line went into the carb body and there was a filter back inside the hole. Who knew right? Just curious when that started. Maybe you could look under one. Yes, you talked about a screen in there. Good stuff.
i bought a universal zenith carb for a circa '74 ford 2000.worked good ,it was an updraft
Another top notch video
Beautiful and very knowledgeable...thank you for the great video
***** Thank you Rachel !!...Zenith carbs also used on Wisconsin engines...like the "TJD" models :-) ****
And Mustang skid loaders with Ford Pinto motors!
This carb is really similar to the zenith on a Wisconsin I was working on. I looked on your website and you do not have Wisconsin parts. Who is a good resource for wisconsin? The throttle shaft on this unit was super loose so I would love to get a full kit with the bushings for it
Great job Rachel !
I wonder how hard is it to go from magneto to a distributor and which would be better i have the same tractor wd , i sent my magneto out to get rebuilt and i got taken for a fool so i'am out a magneto so i'm trying to figure out the best way to go
How to tell if u have a wd or wd45 and how to tell what year u have
Great video!
Not only are you intelligent and beautiful, you don't wear gloves!! thanks!!!
I’m looking for a carb number 9705 model b
I have a zenith carb on my Massey Ferguson 40. Is there a difference in zenith models or would it be the same carb kit.
Where can I buy parts for carb on my B
Does anyone know how to remove the pins holding the linkage arm on the shaft,I need to change control arm to choke shaft ?
I’d rather come home to find her doing this than in the kitchen making supper😍
What causes my tractor to turn off? What do I need to adjust?
Hi
Great video.
I have a 1947 UK Built b with exactly the same carb. The main jet has a plug in it though, why is that?
Very smart gal. Thanks for ur help..
do you sale manuals over the Allis Chalmers Tractors
i wished you made carb kits for quadrajet carbs
I just redid my Allis bad float an clogged up in the tubes use a torch tip cleaners to cleaning out the carb work great people
Cutie pie !😍😝 she knows her tractors

thanks for helping us do it right.
Hi could you tell me the difference between a Massey Ferguson TO 35 and a TE 20. By the way your videos are awesome
Great video. Thank you.

She would be rich by then, and lived a happy life being famous on UA-cam 😄.
But it's true what you said
Maybe some international 154,184,185 cub videos??
Another great video Rachael!
Hopefully this is the correct spelling. Haha

Do you know how repair John Deere 2640?

Thank you and appreciate the video 😊😊
Awesome Video Thanks!👍
There is an old quality manufacturer of screwdrivers made in Japan which have a ball handle and many interchangeable bit shafts available . They are reasonably inexpensive and are on Amazon , Vessel is the name of the company .
Where is the ring ?
You do nice work - what do you charge for big rigs?
Great stuff. Thanks!
Great video !!!!!
Whats a pontoon?
Great info 👍
Thats very informative. Thanks
Very helpful thanks.
Rachel have you stopped using carb dip?
This carburetor cleaned right up with a can of carb cleaner. I do like to use carb dip if a carburetor is in bad condition. -Rachel
So nice
I think I'll rebuild the carb on my Allis-Chalmers B, soon.
You explain good like it
should give that carb a good soak in varsol for bit
"Varsol" ! Good solvent. Haven't heard about that in years. I don't believe they sell it any longer to the general public. Here is an interesting fact: WD-40 is over 50% Stoddard Solvent (Varsol). They add around 25% mineral oil plus various dryers and a coating solution. There you have it: WD-40! Not a very good lubricant, but I bet it would clean up this carb pretty well.
What do you think of using sealant on the gaskets?
I don't recommend sealant on a carburetor as it could drip and plug a main jet or other component. It does more plugging than sealing. -Rachel
My dad and I talked. I am going to order a new gasket kit and get the sealant off. We had that worry about plugging up a jet.
after watching her, I feel I've failed as a father. Dad you did a good job.
Thank you.
lol what about Cockshutt tractors lol would love to see you do a clutch on 1655 Oliver or Cockshutts lol
I soaked mine in carburetor cleaner and then I used a air duster can which is compressed air.
That's perfect!
I do wish you lived next door to me. My farmall 140 zenith 12122 is giving me a fit.
I( like your videos. You do a fantastic job. I don't like the background music. I would guess that most of your audience are of the older type that don't need the external entertainment. Hey thank you!
I'd have opted to dip it instead of using a canned carb cleaner. Spray is almost always used after dip. Good job though :)
Indiana?
I would advise protecting my hands from chemicals such as the carb cleaner. They can be absorbed through the skin and can cause cumulative damage to the kidneys and liver with long exposure.
Good
she is so awesome.
