get the serial number off of it and take that to a dealer, they should be able to look up what engine it has and go from there. I have an older Ariens snowblower, and it (as well as most older ones I’ve seen) have Tecumseh engines. ---

Looking at a picture of one it looks like I have is a Tecumseh motor. Where can I find carbs for this type of motor? ---

> [@StrokedZ28](#): > > Anyone know a place in the Amherst area? go to Hector’s Hardware on Niagara Falls Blvd just south of Eggert. I am pretty sure they should have it. they probably actually have a whole carb rebuild kit. go in the back and talk to Mike the small engine mechanic. prob want to take the model # and serial # with you as he will prob ask you for it
