Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Snowblower Carburetor, montgomery wards, tecumseh engine

Question
Hello. Have used the site before. Very good info.  Mr. Jones , I have a 1993 MTD (Montgomery Ward)3hp 2 cycle snowblower still runs fairly well. But had the carburetor checked and might need a new one due to long use. It has a Tecumseh engine having difficulty finding part number. Its model# 313-180-088. (Tmo-35252)Would appreciate if you knew the part number that fits.

Answer
The model number 313-180-088 is an MTD model number, the snowblower manufacturer.  The TMO number is usually a Montgomery Wards number, who may have sold the blower.

To track down the carb part number I need the engine model number.  Most likely the engine is a Tecumseh engine.

To find the engine model number take a look at the link below, page 1:

Let me know the engine model number and I can look up the carb part number.
