Tecumseh engine ID?
 
2 Attachment(s)
I have this tecumseh engine that was given to me and I can’t find any ID on it anywhere. I had a similar one on my Jacobsen snowblower before and it was an HM80. This one is newer looking, and from some MTD machine. Any suggestions? I don’t know if there are any tecumseh experts here.

Maybe behind the tank or exhaust shroud would be some stamping???

remove the electric starter plug. I can vaguely see part of the ID stamped next to it and running underneath it. might have to sand slightly on shroud in that area

Cool Steve. Time to find a CAT pump and make a belt drive pressure washer from that one

Most of those snowblower motors are 8 or 5hp. 8hps have a big rectangle can muffler the 5hp ones are L shaped like that one. Many uses for that! Nice!

The only ID I can find is 143-686092 on top, which comes up in searches as a tecumseh on a Sears snowblower. Looks like it might be an HM100... I got it running too, it needs carb work. It’s in bad shape. I took it apart and cleaned it but there’s too much rust and chit up in there. Also the gas tank is cracked on the side which stinks. She’s a runner though which is cool.

with that style of pull start it aint no 5hp....
the mufflers on the 8hp Tec on my Deere walk behind and my Mom's MTD are both like what is pictured.
with a 143... model number it was originally from a Sears snow blower.
