HELP!!!!
Original Message   Dec 12, 2005 12:01 pm
I am very discouraged with Sears.  I have a snow thrower there trying to get fixed and I am having no luck.  I have an engine number and a carb. number and they cannot find the model number...can anyone help me?  I know it is around 25 years old...it worked until last winter and I just needed the carb. replaced.  The numbers are :

143696092 engine number

632334A carb number

It is a craftsman 8.5 hp snowthower.  Any info would help.


Thanks.

ok...I am a woman...but...it has been to the sears repair center and they supposedly could not find it and refused to research it...so I was trying to take things into my own hands.... thought having these part numbers it might lead to a model number.

Thanks for the thought though.

Nelly,

What make and HP is your engine.

Once you have that, you can call the maker and ask them what year the engine was built.

Then you will know what year the blower was made, either the same as the engine or one year later.

The model of the engine, 143.696092 is a Tecumseh engine.  Any model number on an engine on a Sears/Craftsman that starts with 143 is a Tecumseh.  The blower itself should have a similar model number ie :xxx.xxxxxx. 

This link will show you what manufacturer corresponds to the 3 digit pre-fix.

(sorry-could not get the link button to work)



As for your carb nelly, any local Tecumseh engine dealer should be able to get you one if it is still available within a day or 2.  Go to:

www.tecumsehpower.com/frameset.php?page=CustomerService/ServiceLocator/index.php

and find your local dealer.
