How do you replace the pull start cord on a 5 hp tecumseh snow king engine, I can't find my manual. Pull start cord broke last snow we had.

The spark plug gap for a Murray Select Tecumseh Snow King 8/24 can vary depending on the specific model and year of the engine. However, as a general guideline, the spark plug gap for most Tecumseh Snow King engines is between 0.020 and 0.030 inches (0.5-0.8 mm).

To be certain of the correct spark plug gap for your specific model, you should consult the owner's manual or contact the manufacturer. The manual or manufacturer should have the recommended gap size and other relevant information about maintaining your engine.

If you've never performed this sort of maintenance before, then you should not try it without assistance. The spring is under considerable tension and can snap out suddenly and inflict quite a bit of damage to you.

I recommend that you contact your nearest authorized service center for assistance, or search youtube for a comparable video.

I trust this information proves useful.

they are rivets, you will need a drill, the bit should be just big enough to fit the pin, once you start to drill it will come off. You can put screws back in once the repair is made. Good Luck Tim

You need carburetor Kit and this will fix your problem.Anytime motor runs fuel out it will be carburetor

-In bnjays case the rope was broken. Sometimes the rope retracks partially or slowly because the surface that the spring edges rub against when retracting the cord, are badly rusted. Disassemble and wire brush the rust off, or leave assembled and spray in thru holes in the pull start with WD40.Avoid getting WD40 on the rope.
