What is missing on this Rochester B

Chipping away at items on my "get the truck restarted after 13 years" list...
The carter W carb that was on it is totally filled with nasty varnished gas- so decided I will rebuild the rochester b that came in a parts bucket with the truck.

I pulled it out and was looking at it last night- and realize that its missing something. I think there should be some sort of linkage, or kick-off or something screwed to that pivot on the front- goes between the choke & the throttle arm.



Can anyone with one of these carbs take a close up pic so i can see what it looks like?
Does it have a spring under it, or any other peices I'm missing?

Thnx

Your missing the main arm, and the little round return spring that goes around the mounting screw.

Re: What is missing on this Rochester B

Hi Rambow, Hogger54's advice is right on. I have 2 model B's and they are a little different from each other and also from yours. It appears that the missing parts on yours are probably the same as all of these pictured carbs.
