I have a 23 year old 10 HP 2 stage snow blower. Lately the carburetor was sticking dumping fuel or not giving enough. At one point my muffler was cherry red. We had a few years without any significant snow so I was good. This year we had 12 inches in one snowfall. The snow blower worked great for about 10 minuets and then it would stall. I'd wait a few minutes, start it up and get another 10 minutes. I skeptically bought this replacement carbonator. The reviews were good. It came with a-lot of extras like a throttle handle (which mine had broke) primer, spark plug etc. Today I swapped out the old carb with the new one. I took pics before so it wasn't too bad. It took me about 30 minuets. Put fresh gas in and it started without any issues. I let it run for 20 minuets and all good!

Bought an early 2000s MTD Pro snow blower off of marketplace for like $50. Guy left old fuel in it for like 3 years so the carb was all gunked up. Got this bad boy and it probably took maybe an hour to swap out with the old one. Just realize there's some parts on your old carb that have to move over to this. Next day we got hit with a huge snowstorm and my snowblower ran great! Kit came with so many extra parts which was nice including bolts for mounting the choke control from the old carb. Which thank god it did because I had to cut the old carbs bolts with a rotary tool because the bolts were stripped and weren't budging. The kit even comes with 2 pieces of some solid fuel line with a fuel filter and shutoff to upgrade the old fuel line that didn't include any of that. I actually didn't realize that is what it was for and thought they didn't send a long enough fuel line so I'll probably do that a different time. My line was fine so it didn't matter too much, but I can't speak on how it holds up since I didn't use it. I do wish it came with extra line for the primer (be aware that it doesn't in case you have to cut the line because its stuck on old carb), but for $20 though, this is a great kit and everything fit perfectly. Much better then trying to clean up the old one which I now have as a spare. I can see me using parts from this kit for a long time. Take pictures of your old carb before removing it so carb adjustment is just putting everything back where it previously was.

An exact fit for my 2006 OEM Snow King snowblower engine. Started on the first pull, checked high and idle RPMs with a tachometer and they were spot on, no adjustment needed. Only used the carb, original fuel/primer lines and primer bulb were just fine, but good to have replacements for future needs. Quick and simple installation, no instructions so if you're skittish, look up your specific snowblower on Youtube and watch some of the many videos. Take pictures and note which hole the governor link uses, I marked the correct spot for the new one with a Sharpie before I started. You'll also use the original shield bracket and choke linkage, so be sure to note how they work. And do yourself a favor and use ONLY ethanol-free gas in small carbureted engines, mine was 12 years old when I got it, clearly the previous owner did not. I'll clean out the old carb at some point and put it on the shelf, but this was a hassle free, quick and efficient choice. UPDATE to my 11/15/2024 review: have used this carburetor on my Tecumseh snowblower for 2 full seasons now, including the last '25-'26 pretty brutal NY winter. Works perfectly still, zero issues, starts quick, runs smooth. Every time. Again, I can't impress how important it is to use Ethanol-free gas ONLY. Also do yourself a favor and don't fill it up in the fall with summer blend gas. Wait for the winter blend, otherwise you are more likely to have starting issues when it gets below freezing.

Purchased solely for the carb, the other stuff was a bonus. Fuel line doesn't look to be a good quality, but it was better than what was on it, im sure it will be dryrotted by next year, and I'll be kicking myself in the @ss for using it, lol! Carb was an exact fit for mt Tecumseh snowblower, and it now runs 100% perfect 👌 👍

Used this a on a craftsman snow blower. Received the carb in good condition. Installed it with the shut off and filter, which were not on the snow blower. These were a good plus for me. Replaced the primer as well. Added fuel, primed it, and it fired right up and ran great. Very pleased.

Fantastic. Should have changers it out years ago. My snow blower is 32 years old. Carb was fouled for a few years. Put this economical beauty on and it runs like new.

Kit comes with way more than I needed, but always nice to have and not need...! (wish I would have had that mentality when I was taking pictures of all the linkage hookups 🙄) Once installed, my old Ariens 8 horsepower snow thrower started right up! Now just have to do a bit of tweaking to keep it running, but very impressive so far.... Way way way better than having to rebuild the old one (it hadn't been started in over 6 years with a zero fuel stabilizer) Very thankful for the extra gaskets as well... The only difference was that the choke assembly is much shorter in positioned slightly differently so I can't use the old linkage to control the choke... No big deal as it's only a 3" further reach to grab the choke arm itself. Super easy install, so long as you remember what goes where lol! MOST DEFINITELY WORTH the $!

Good quality and fit

This carb works just as I hoped & better than trying to get the old one to work having old fuel left in it for 8 years. The primer, hose & knobs were a bonus.

Fonctionne super bien

I was sceptical about buying an aftermarket carb verses an OEM one but at a 1/3 rd the cost what the heck...long story short..My blower has never run as well as it does now......starts first pull and it powers thru the snow without any issues.

compatible fonctionne bien

Great cheap way to keep my 30 year old snowblower running.
