I received a FREE MTD snow blower w/ 8hp Tecumseh motor, but as they say, there is no free lunch. My free snow blower needed many replacement parts to operate properly, including a new or rebuilt carburetor as it would surge constantly at operating temperature and there is no adjustment. I'm handy, but not inclined to rebuild a carburetor, so I purchased this replacement. For the low cost, including all of the additional parts, I was skeptical and my expectations were very low. You do need to transfer the choke assembly and the bracket for the metal cover from the old carburetor to this new one. All holes were tapped from the factory and accepted the old screws without issue. The new carburetor installed easily and is a perfect replacement for the original carburetor that came with my MTD snow blower. I only used the carburetor and one of the clamps for the fuel line, but all of the included replacement parts appear to be of good quality. With the new carburetor installed, which took less than 20 minutes, the snow blower fired right up on a single pull of the recoil starter handle and runs smoothly without any surging. This carburetor is non-adjustable, but came preset from the factory. I am very satisfied with this carburetor and am very much looking forward to the first big snowfall of the season. Highly recommended.
