Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): TECUMSEH TVS105 Replacment, pto shaft, question pool

Question
Trying to locate a replacement engine for a Troy-Bilt Trailblazer model#34309 s/n#343090100853 with a 4HP Tecumseh model# TVS105-53629J Spec# 22538 with a 3" long & 7/8" diameter crankshaft & a PTO shaft (turns clockwise) just below the carb (drives the wheels). Troy-Bilt could not help at all. Looked several places with no luck so far.

Answer
Hello John:

Sorry for the Delay. This Question was Located in the Question Pool. The Best Way to Locate a Replacement is to Contact Tecumseh Directly. Call 1-800-558-5402. When Prompted Select #3 on the Phone Key Pad. Then Tell the Person that Answers that you are Trying to Locate a Replacement Engine. They will Put you through to Parts Look Up. Parts Look Up can Use your Current Engine Information and Give you the Replacement Engine Model Numbers to Take to your Local Dealer for Purchase. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck

Respectfully

John
