There are two electron carriers produced in the citric acid (Krebs Cycle). The first is NAD+ or NADH in its reduced form. The other is FAD+ which becomes FADH2 after being reduced. One turn of the citric acid cycle produces 1 and 3 molecules of FADH2 and NADH respectively.
You are most likely looking for NADH and FADH2. Each of these molecules can carry 2 electrons (these can come from glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, or a number of other enzymatically-catalyzed reactions) into the electron transport chain (ETC). They are known as "electron carriers" or "reducing equivalents," because when they reach the ETC, they lose their electrons (oxidation) and pass these electrons into the ETC to eventually fuel ATP synthesis.

NADH or NAD+ and FADH
The electron carriers in the Krebs cycle are NADH and FADH2.
NAD+ (reduced form NADH) and FADH (reduced form FADH2).
NADP+ (turns to NADPH when reduced, or electrons are added) & FAD (turns to FADH2)
Nadh & fadh2
NADH and FADH2
Most of the energy comes from the electron transport chain by oxidative phosphorylation. However there is energy produced in the Krebs cycle and Glycolysis this is called substrate level phosphorylation.
NAD+ is the oxidized form of the most common electron carrier needed in both glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle.
Glycolysis->Krebs Cycle->Electron Transfer
FAD
In the Krebs cycle NAD+ is reduced to NADH. This is one of the electron carriers. Also FAD is reduced to FADH2 which is the other electron carrier produced during the Krebs cycle.
The Krebs cycle, or citric acid cycle, produces 4 NADH electron carriers and carbon dioxide. Other products include FADH2 and ATP.

false. it produces ATP, electron carriers and carbon dioxide.
electron carriers
The Kreb's Cycle is a repeating series of reactions that produces ATP, electron carriers, and carbon dioxide.
Most of the energy comes from the electron transport chain by oxidative phosphorylation. However there is energy produced in the Krebs cycle and Glycolysis this is called substrate level phosphorylation.
Krebs cycle yields very little ATP energy. Some of the important products of this cycle are NADH, FADH2, and CO2. Most of the ATP energy will be synthesized in electron transport chain.
