    The carb is a Carter model WCD. There SHOULD be a triangular tag with the carburetor identification number that is NECESSARY to acquire a rebuilding kit.

    Carter used LEATHER accelerator pumps, which are greatly superior to rubber. You don't change the leather on a WCD pump, you change the pump. Pumps are probably available only in a rebuilding kit.
