Soda Blast!!! whatever the hell that is? I guess its kind of like a lite duty sandblaster. A new linkage that came in the comprehensive rebuild kit

I don't see where you stated what this is for. So, what is it for?

It looks similar to the updraft carbs I've rebuilt on older tractors. Very similar to the old Case DC I had for years.

Its Zenith a carb that attaches to a Perkins AG3 152, 3 cyl Massey Ferguson 135 Tractor. I had two carbs that after torn down and soda blasted by a friend, I installed the rebuild kit. We recently aquired a FREE tractor ( the best kind) just a year difference. These carbs were installed in many makes of tractors they are Extremely reliable & Obviously easy to rebuild if I can do it. The 135 Massey is a utility tractor thats perfect for the light duty things that I use them for. Ive found a Original bucket loader that needs to be gone through before mounting it to the second 135 it'll be nice to scoop up animal dung rather that using a shovel. This is my 1st tractor ready for the day.

Cool! On my old DC I had the original loader - power up, float down, trip bucket. I modified it to be power up AND down. A local kid never saw a trip bucket before and was amazed by it when I went and got manure from his Dad's horse farm.

Exactly. It uses a crystalized form of baking soda. Easy cleanup with minimal abrasive damage.

I remember the "good" stuff in the 60's that even a drop on your skin would burn it. In the 70's it must have been de-nutted because it no longer did that and didn't clean as well either.

hahahha I agree. Now some chemicals are really harsh to our skin, even though advertisements would say it won't. Companies just do this for money. Like they would not really prioritize running many trials for our health.
