Use that manual just as a guide, as it doesn’t contain specs for an HH140 heavy duty cast iron engine. I’m trying to locate a manual for you engine. Second, DO NOT I repeat DO NOT work on the ignition system without coming back here first. It uses the old fashion points and condenser system and needs special tools and directions if you need to replace parts or adjust timing. This system even drives experienced mechanic to drink.

Thanks for the heads up on the ignition system. I'm hoping I don't have to go there..............Once I have the carb done I'll try to refire engine.

We have most things around here somewhere - unless they're entirely obscure. :smile:

Hey everyone I found a rebuild kit for my fuel pump on the Tecumseh HH140. If I'm correct the part # is 300-691. I ordered one so we will see. Hope this helps someone else.
