I bought a '46 B at an estate sale last weekend. The tractor runs and is in fair condition. This is going to become my amateur restore project. After really giving it a good lookover I have some concerns over the condition of the carb. After I run it sometimes, a darkish color of gas sometimes drips from one of the screws. I don't know much about carbs. I am looking for some help on whether you folks think that it just needs a good tune-up/restoration, or a complete replacement. Here are some things I have already done before I typed this up:
1. Ran the tractor to use up all the old gas in the tank when I bought it. 2. Put some new gas in, cleaned out the sediment bowl, and drove it around for an hour.
If it just needs a restoration kit--what would you folks recommend would be the kit for me? I have looked around at a lot of the restoration websites and every one of them seems to have many different types of carb restoration kits.
Here are some pictures to help out (hopefully they show up). I appreciate it!

My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to
