Howdie what do you need to Know About it ?

A complete replacement carburetor will just buy you another set of parts identical to the ones you already have. Nothing is worn out. You should be able to clean the carburetor inside with SPRAY carburetor & fuel injector cleaner, after opening it up. Spray the cleaner through the jet and every passage you can find. Be careful about your eyes - some passages lead back toward your face, and carburetor cleaner is NO good for your eyes! When it's clean, examine it to be absolutely sure everything's assembled correctly, especially the float valve ("needle and seat"). Put it back together and reinstall it on the engine. Put a little FRESH gasoline (NEVER use old gasoline in an engine!) in the tank. Now take off the fuel line (from the carburetor) and make sure fuel drains from it freely. Put it back on immediately and loosen the bowl. Fuel should also drain from the bowl freely. Last, doublecheck your idle mix adjustment screw. If you toyed with it, you have to get it adjusted correctly again - a good starting point is SNUG (never TIGHT), then back it out counterclockwise about 1-1/2 turns. Once you get the engine started and running without the choke, it (the screw) should be adjusted until it's very slightly rich (counterclockwise) from the point where idle speed drops if you turn it clockwise any further. Said another way... get it idling without the choke, then turn that screw in (clockwise) 1/4-turn at a time until you can hear the idle speed drop. At that point, back it out (counterclockwise) about 1/4 turn. If you CAN'T get it to idle without the choke, then just try backing out (counterclockwise) that screw 1/4-turn at a time. Each 1/4-turn should make it run just a little richer, necessitating less choke.

try to get one though engine model number

sounds like carb needs cleaning or plug changed id do both

you need to thin out your mixture on the carb. should solve this.

Do not have a true answer other than to say it's probably a 5/16" bolt. 40 ft lbs would be about right for that

Sounds like a serious flooding issue, perhaps due to having blower on its side, take out spark plug and place plastic bag over and try pulling over, be careful that it doesn't spark and ignite any fuel expelled out of cylinder. if that is the case pull over several times blow off plug and try again, fuel might be trapped in muffler so be aware of spray, ignition. If it doesn't pull over with the plug removed take it back as a valve might be sprung.

Two ways to find out: 1. 2.elctric start with elctric, take the plug cable out and see if have https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUOmsGiirTU if you have spark go to fuel : change the old fuel to a fresh one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfzzTilqwo0

Check the crankcase and make sure it has oil. It sounds like the engine is frozen. If its brand new, take it back to Sears and have them start it for you.

Try a spray of starting fluid into the carb. If it fires you know you have good spark. If it did not fire replace your spark plug. If it still won't fire point and condensor need to be replaced. If it did fire spray the starting fluid in the carb a few more times to pull the old fuel through the fuel line til the new gas gets through the carb and then it should run. Some machines have a fuel shut off valve make sure it is open.

what ???

Around the back of the engine, just below the cylinder cooling fins. The shut off should face you if standing in front of the recoil starter, for the fuel tank. The fuel line should wrap around I the side of the carb and be protected by the metal cover surrounding it.

3600+/- 20rpm. That's the top end, I'd say idle should be between 1200 and 1500, but I don't know what model motor it is. I'm assuming its a Tecumseh snow king engine
