Maxwell K D Carburetor Info Sought

Recommended Posts

I just rebuilt a K D carburetor I acquired on eBay a few years ago. I originally bought it not because I needed it but because it was nickel  plated. I've owned 16 of these carburetors and have never seen one plated before until last night when I ran across another one on a barn find 1915 Maxwell for sale online. I'd like to know if any owners have one on their cars. I'm wondering if these were used on the 1914-1915 Model 25's? These 2 have no markings other than "PAT. PNDG.". Of my 16 carbs some are marked K D TYPE B and later ones are marked K D TYPE B PAT. AUG. 8 1916. One last unique feature is the two nickel examples do NOT have the threaded plug directly over the needle valve.

Thanks hwellens, where was this published and what date? Curious because it mentions other sizes and all I've ever seen are the Maxwell size.
