Why not rebuild it or if your not able to do that there are people on this site that can/will do so also where you are located can make a difference as to who can do that for a good price and save shipping cost

If I can get a replacement under $ 100 would be better. by time I pay for kit, carb cleaner & the fact that I'm over 80 with bad eyesight. Haven't found any body close NE Pa. to do it. Even if I do, I'm sure it will be over $100 I see carb that look like it just wonder if someone used different carb & it worked

Some of the Amazon carbs work fine. Depends on the brand/seller. We have had good luck with dozens of them. BUT.....if your tractor is running terrible and you ain't sure its the carb a new carb won't be a magic fix. What are your symptoms?

Runs well wasn't getting good flow of gas had to go back & clean tank & replace petcock now carb leaks cleaned needle valve & inside carb still leaks just thought quicker fix would be cheaper carb. I know on smaller engines like mowers & weed eaters it's just as cheap to get new replacement carb. thought i could go that route. most of the cheap. carbs on amazon are for 132 engine.

99 out of 100 carbs that my wife works on for us really just need a good cleaning, occasionally she needs a gasket to go between the halves. You can buy that from McDonald carb in GA. We always buy small engine carbs from Amazon,but try to rebuild old tractor carbs. We buy new ones if we buy a tractor with a missing or busted carb 😀...

Over the years, and hundreds of posts about replacement tractor carbs, buying low cost replacement rarely saves either money or time.
