Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Engine rep Toro Snowblower model 38050, model h70, assembly drawings

Question
Hello,
I have a problem with keeping the engine running.
I have replaced the filter,spark plug and changed the fuel but it will not keep running, maybe 30 seconds at tops then stops.
I do not know where to find the engine model number.
I know that it is Tesumseh engine.

What carburetor kit do I need to purchase?
I have taken off the bowl and the part that is on the float has fallen off and I can not find.

Answer
Hello Wesley:

Depending on the Year of Manufacture; this Unit has the Following Engines. From 1979 - 1984, a Tecumseh Model H70-130176F Engine and 1985 - 1987, a Tecumseh Model H70-130259K Engine. The Carburetor Kit for these Engines are All the Same. The Carburetor Kit is Part #31840. You can View a Breakdown/IPL of the Mower at this Site Addy, https://lookup3.toro.com/partdex/default.cfm and Select Start Parts Viewer. Now Enter the Model Numbers (38050) and Click Search. Now Select View Assembly Drawings for your Year Model. 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
