    If convenient , could you take and post photos of front area of lower half of fuel tan and also of area where cowl (carburetor cover) fastens to cylinder, That could give some more information about your KB-3 Thanks Louis

    Louis, I’ll try to remember to take a better photo of the front, lower gas tank area.
    Here’s the powerhead though, and what I presume to be a cowl mount on
    one side.

    On a side note, I was gifted a KB1A Mercury today, and in looking at the model list,
    it looks like it’s also a 1941, but it the Tillotson carb, and no rewind…… no cowls either,
    but at this point, not sure it’s suppose to have them.
    Confused at this point what the differences are suppose to be in the 3.2 hp Models in 1941.
