Replacing the carb on a tecumseh engine in a troy bilt snow blower. Same as Craftsman, Mtd, Yard man, Yard machines and others.

Thank you very much for this. I've got an older (2006) MTD Yardman and this video coerced me to believe that a carb replacement was quite doable despite my lack of engine knowledge. Local power equipment place wanted $91 for the part and close to $150 to for them to do this fairly simple fix. $16 carb bought on Amazon and I'm done right before an impending significant storm tomorrow. Fired up on first pull and I'm thrilled.

I ran into this video randomly to work on my fuel-leaking Snapper. Then I was like, wait a minute that's Blake from my hometown! Small world, cool channel! Turns out the short hose from the tank to the petcock had a hole in it and the fuel was running down the main hose and dripping from the carb. Runs a lot better with the new carb, so it was still worth it.

Your video was very informative and helpful. I appreciated the step- by- step instructions of what and what not to do and what to look for. I watched it twice to make sure I didn't miss anything and when I went to replace the carburetor, I had no troubles at all. You did a great job, keep up the good work! (You made it as easy as taking another piece of pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving, lol!)

Thank you for the video. The new carb had a metal input barb and I angled it like you did but there appears to be a slight leak from between the barb and the carb body. I replaced the fuel line in case I damaged it during the carb replacement. So the fuel line should not be the issue. Any ideas about how to on stop the leak? Can the barb unscrew and be reinstall with some type of sealant? If so any recommendations on what to use. Thanks again for the video! It was very helpful.

I've had some barbs break while moving unfortunately. It's possible yours cracked if i had to guess. Two ideas would be to either replace it again (unfortunately) or to eliminate the 90° on the barb and make it a straight barb only with a hacksaw or something similar, and extend the fuel line to attach to the straight portion if there's enough room to do so. It seems like the metals they're making the barbs out of are getting cheaper so they unfortunately break more easily. Thanks for watching!

Great video. My blower is 30 yrs old and the engine started oscillating last winter. I can see the governor moving back and forth. Rather than tear apart the carb I decided to buy a new carb. Are these carbs set from factory or will I need to make any screw adjustments.

Some are not adjustable. If there are no adjustment screws, it will be preset, but if it has two adjustment screws it will need some fine adjustment. Usually 1 1/2 turns out is a good starting point.

What's up man. I appreciate the video. It was very helpful. After the fact, I happened to find the carburetor bowl with the drain spring. What's involved in changing a carburetor bowl? It seems easy, but when I tried to change the bowl years ago, I messed something up. Thanks for any help that you or anyone reading can provide.

Its always a little trickier when the carburetor is installed on the machine because you'll be installing the needle, float, and bowl upside down. 1. Slide the needle into the float tang or slot, whichever yours has. 2. Lift the needle into its seat while lining up the float hinge mounting holes. 3. Slide the pivot pin through the float mounting holes and corresponding holes on the carburetor. 4. Install the carburetor bowl gasket and make sure it stays seated while lifting the bowl into place. Hold everything while installing the bowl mounting bolt. Hope that helps!

Try taking the spark plug out and stand back, slowly pull the cord because excess fuel might spray out of the plug hole. This is a common problem when dealing with a gummed up carburetor. Once you've cleared things out, put the spark plug back and you're all set.

Could you please tell me whether the throtle lever has one more spring in addition to the spring that goes from the lever to the governer (if i correctly call this plate with many holes in it)? I installed new car, checked that the linkage from the carb and the spring from the throttle lever are installed properly in the right holes of the carb and governor . But the engine when starts has very high RPM in all the positions of the lever, and the lever goes down by itself from the RUN position to the STOP. I understand that i have to adjusr RPM and idle by way of two screws. But i cannot understand this movement of the lever down by itself. Thank you for answering.)) I have a Tecumseh non-adjustable carburetor, the same as in you video.

What likely happened is the piece with all the holes in it, attached to the throttle control, is 180 degrees off meaning it's upside down. That piece should point upwards and I would guess yours is pointing downwards. The bracket for the throttle adjustment is held on with two 1/4 inch screws and either needs to be removed in order to rotate the arm upward or the carburetor removed in order to do the same thing. What commonly happens is the arm swings down while the carburetor is removed causing it to be reinstalled I'm the wrong direction. Hopefully that makes sense.

Thank you very much for your answer. The piece with all the holes is not upside down. It points upwards The spring goes to the third hole, while the linkage from the carb goes to to the left hole on the top of the piece. Everything is installed in the manner you showed in your video @@BlakesGarage1

The throttle dropping on its own is something new to me and that's my main concern. Two things to test: when you move the throttle lever up and down, does it also move either the governor arm on the left side or the throttle on the carburetor itself? Second thing to try. Can you easily move the throttle on rhe carburetor by hand or is something pinched or binding?
