I have a 1948 cub and was wondering if anybody can tell me the model number of the zenith carburetor that it’s supposed to have on it?
Thanks.

Re: Zenith carb
A 48 Cub would originally have had an IH updraft carburetor installed. A Zenith can be retrofitted with several modifications. The Zenith number is 13794E.

Re: Zenith carb
1948 Cub would of had an IH carb. The Zenith wasn't used on Cubs until 1975.
The Zenith model was Z1-68. Part number 13794. IH Part number 71523-C92.

Re: Zenith carb
An IH carburetor is an easier fit on a 48. The Zenith is #13794E but there are things you will need to be aware of to make it fit correctly and work right.
