OK - I gotta ask this question, what else is needed to make this setup fully complete ? Me thinks there is a special little Kerosene tank as this setup is meant to be able to run kerosene as well as gasoline. ( I am pretty sure that I have a New Old Stock KMC brass carb , but not sure if it is the same model ) . -Dusty

I believe the tank is all. Everything else is there.

I had one in the original wooden crate. It had a small gas tank to get the Model T started before switching it over to kerosene. It also had a 1/8” steel spacer shaped like a head gasket that you placed between two head gaskets to lessen the compression in order to run on kerosene.

Thanks for the additional info. Personally, I would probably remove the carburetor and add a regular updraft carburetor.

I have a New Old Stock, never used KMC carb that I would sell to someone who would want to have a very interesting accessory. I can let it go for $130


This is likely THE most elusive carbs you would ever find. With the purchase of Mark's setup , you would be in great shape with spare parts. -Dusty

My first wife had me denatured after our two girls were born. 😀
