Need help identifying carb on 782
Cub dealer says the 782 came with Kohler and Walbro carbs. No brand ID whatsoever... Any help appreciated, professional(psychiatric) or otherwise!!!

Re: Need help identifying carb on 782
The adjusters on it look like a Carter. The adjustable Walbro has the main jet down by the bowl facing downward. Don't know if they consider that a Kohler but doesn't look like a Walbro.
From the first Original to the last x82 Series... you can't beat an IH Cub Cadet!!!

Re: Need help identifying carb on 782
Dealer says there were markings. Probably on the float bowl, I guess I'll have to take it off to find out. I was hoping to get the kit and rebuild it later on,so much for my plan... Thanks for the help,Kevin.

That’s a Carter or a Kohler carb. 25-757-02 should be the part number for the kit. Carb model number can be seen on the mounting flange on your last picture. Good luck!

Re: Need help identifying carb on 782
Funny thing about these carburetors, the body is the carburetor used for a 10 horse K series. The rebuild kit (25-757-02)is the kit used for a 16 horse. Due to the twin cylinders it needs less air but still requires more fuel. With a bad Walbro carburetor, (you’ll need the throttle shaft and choke shaft from the walbro) you can rebuild a 10 horse carburetor using a 16 horse kit and have the correct carburetor for a magnum 18 or a KT 17!

Re: Need help identifying carb on 782
The carb is on a KT 17. The dealer said there were markings on the carb so I took off the air cleaner. No markings except the stamping on the flange. I wanted to be sure about the carb because the kohler kit is $15, a walbro is $60. Thank you for the help, Joe. BTW, that same dealer said that a float for that carb is unobtanium.JMotuzick wrote:Funny thing about these carburetors, the body is the carburetor used for a 10 horse K series.

Re: Need help identifying carb on 782
Float kit is part number 25-757-03.
Throttle/choke shaft kits are 25-757-11 to 25-757-18 depending on the set up. I’m told they went NLA
I think it’s time to find a better dealer, maybe just someone who has a Parts guy over say 45 and who knows how to use paper and microfiche.

Re: Need help identifying carb on 782
I never knew about the 16hp kit being different like that.
I haven't been to my dealer in who knows how many years. When you can get someone that knows what these mowers were, you'll still pay 3 times the cost.

They have a guy about my age (53) but a young girl answered the phone. My friend told me to talk to the older guy for the same reasons you cited.JMotuzick wrote:Float kit is part number 25-757-03.

The 14/16 used the #30 Carter 30 is the bore in MM of the main air chamber, to make up the difference of air/fuel the seat has a bigger hole allowing more fuel flow. I’m sure the main jets are different as well. The “01” kit used 7-14 hp is almost identical and the seat could be opened up a bit to work in a pinch. I’m not sure the hole sizes but it is clearly visible when side by side.

Re: Need help identifying carb on 782
Thanks again for the part numbers. I got the carb kit from the dealer, and the float kit from IHCCW. I'll get to fixing it this week.davis2 wrote:They have a guy about my age (53) but a young girl answered the phone.
