Description

When your International Harvester tractor starts running rough, hesitating on acceleration, or flooding out after sitting, chances are your carburetor needs attention. A carburetor that’s been in service for years accumulates wear in the needle valve, throttle shaft, and float mechanism—all the moving parts that control fuel flow. This basic repair kit gets you back to smooth running without the expense of a complete carburetor replacement.

What You’re Getting

Complete needle and seat assembly to stop fuel flooding and restore proper fuel level control
Throttle shaft components to eliminate the play that causes erratic idle and acceleration
Float lever shaft parts for accurate fuel level sensing
Full gasket set to seal everything up tight and prevent air leaks
Stainless steel needle valve that resists wear and ethanol fuel damage

Built for Real Farm Work

This TISCO kit is designed for older International Harvester tractors that still earn their keep around the farm. Whether you’re running a Farmall, Super series, or other IH model, these carburetors see hard use through dusty conditions, temperature extremes, and today’s ethanol-blended fuels that can be tough on older fuel systems.

Made to Last

The kit includes quality components that stand up to farm duty. The stainless steel needle valve resists corrosion and wear better than the original brass parts. Gaskets are made from materials that handle modern fuel blends without swelling or deteriorating like old-style rubber seals.

Good to Know

Before you tear into the carburetor, clean the outside thoroughly—dirt falling into the fuel bowl ruins everything. Take photos as you disassemble so you remember where everything goes. When installing the new needle valve, don’t over-tighten the seat—it’s softer material that can distort if forced.
