on some pushmower with tecumseh engines the carbs wil swap right in. but they have a primer instead of a choke.put one on a 60 and a 70 today and they run great
it came off 3.5 hp thata a few years ago for $5 i got at auction. you have to use the origional intake tube and the new air cleaner assembly. engine is a model v100 i think will try to load pics
Shannon they may fit and even run but that is a much smaller carburetor than the original one on a 70. If you look down the throat the venturi is much smaller on the 3.5 HP. I have both carbs sitting on my work table and there is a lot of size difference. Roger
I would guess if you were to load the tractor down a lot you would run into problems since it was for a smaller engine, but for putt'in around it would probably work fine.
