Zenith F - Ray White - 04-08-2022

I have a Zenith F carburettor that I understand was fitted to Austin Sevens from 1923 to 1926.  Apart from the choke spring having broken (and temporarily bodged) it seems to be in good unrestored condition.  I have been advised that the shield which I added is incorrect but as there was an unused threaded hole I assumed there should be one.

The essential difference between the F and the more commonly seen FZ is the bottom feed to the float chamber as opposed to a side entry.  

A rare carb?

I think this version was only fitted in 1923.

A very limited market then?
