Your carburetor is pictured and discribed in "The Modern Gasoline Automobile" by Victor W. Page,
M. E. 1918 Edition, as a Marvel-Buick Carburetor. My 1923 Buick has one installed, the only difference being two hot air ports, in and out. I can copy the info for you.

Thanks Dick,

I apologize to you and OME site for the delay in responding.

Thanks for the info. It seems if this is an automotive carb from '23' or even '18' it is way to new for my current projects and therefore not of interest to me at this time.

If they were around in 05 to 09 and could be used on two stroke marine engines (either 2 or 3 cylinders) then that is a different story.

I have been trying to find an advertisement for them in marine magazines of that era, and have failed to do so. I did not want to say no to your offer and then find out that they were used in early marine applications.

On the flip side I did not want to waste your time by having you provide info to me that I could not use.

Thank you for your gracious offer.
