This is a small engine spark plug positioned in the engine cylinder head. It supplies the spark that will ignite the air-fuel mixture to enable an engine to produce power. This particular spark plug is designed with superior corrosion resistance and dependable performance. Small but mighty, this component allows for increased conductivity and heat control. If the spark plug is damaged or in poor condition, many problems may arise in equipment, including sudden stop while running, overheating, and excessive gas consumption. Replace the spark plug by disconnecting the spark plug wire first, then use a socket driver or wrench to remove the spark plug. Install the new spark plug by turning it by hand initially to avoid cross-threading. If it doesn't twist anymore, use a deep socket wrench or socket driver to tighten the plug until snug. The spark plug can also be used to tune up outdoor power equipment or improve a small engine. This part is recommended to be replaced once per season. This part works with lawn mowers, snowblowers, tillers, leaf blowers, log splitters, wood chippers, and others with small engines. It is compatible with brands such as Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Murray, Yard Machines, MTD, Huskee, Bolens, Yard-Man, and MasterCut. This is a genuine OEM part directly from the manufacturer and is sold individually.

Slide shoes, otherwise known as skid shoes, are attached to a snowblower to help protect the concrete it moves over. The slide shoe also helps to protect the underside of the snowblower. They are composed of metal and are attached to the bottom of the machine. With use, the slide shoes may wear down. They can also become defective from accidents while operating the snow throwing machine. When the slide shoes are not working correctly, there can be irreversible damage done to both the snowblower and the concrete. Replacement slide shoes can easily be attached to the bottom of a snowblower. Be sure to allow the machine to cool down completely. It's recommended to set the snowblower on top of a piece of cardboard. Remove the old shoes and install the new ones, tightening all nuts and washers while the skid shoe is flat on the ground.This is a manufacturer supplied OEM MTD snowblower slide shoe. Each shoe is sold separately. The slide shoe is made of high-quality, durable black steel. It is suggested to replace both shoes simultaneously to ensure an even and consistent path for the MTD snowblower.

This impeller is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer for use on snowblowers to move snow that has accumulated and is a safety hazard. The impeller rotates to pull the snow up and out a discharge chute. If snow is not blowing out of the blower, the impeller should be checked to ensure it is rotating. If the impeller is not rotating, it will need to be removed and replaced for the blower to function properly.Remove the spark plug from the machine and drain the gas from the engine. Disconnect the control cables and separate the engine of the blower from the blower itself. Remove the auger to access the impeller. Remove the impeller from the blower and install the new one. Reassemble the snowblower and refill the gas. Put the spark plug back in and fire up the engine to test the new impeller. This impeller is sold as an individual unit. It is designed for use in snowblowers that are manufactured by MTD, Yard Machines, Yard-Man, Troy-Bilt, Husky, and Cub Cadet.

This part is a replacement friction wheel assembly. It is intended to replace a defective or broken friction wheel assembly in snow blowers.The friction wheel works with the friction disc to turn the drive wheel axle. This part is essential to proper equipment functionality but may be damaged with regular equipment usage. Before beginning this repair job, disconnect spark plug. Wear work gloves to protect the hands and check that equipment is powered off and cooled down before beginning. This friction wheel assembly is a genuine MTD OEM part made of durable materials and is sold individually. It is suitable for use with snow blower models that have been manufactured by MTD, Craftsman, Troy-Bilt, and some other brands.

This replacement is a friction wheel assembly that is designed to work with a snow blower. The friction wheel engages the friction disc assembly to assist in the forward and rearward travel movement of the snowblower. If the friction wheel becomes worn or damaged, the snowblower moves slowly or erratically. Prior to the start of this project, ensure all appropriate personal protective equipment is worn. This would include work gloves and eye protection. To replace this part, first disconnect the spark plug wire. Then, remove the frame cover and wheels. Next, remove the hex shaft mounting nut and the friction disc. Clean the shaft and install the new friction disc. Reinstall the wheels and the frame panel. Reconnect the spark plug and test the snowblower. The snowblower is now ready for use.To clean the friction wheel assembly, remove the cover of the snowblower to expose the friction wheel. With all PPE donned, take a cloth with a small amount of gas saturated on it and place it over the friction wheel. Spin the wheels to engage the friction wheel. The gas saturated cloth will work by cleansing the grease off the friction wheel. Once there is no more grease coming off the friction wheel, take a dry cloth and repeat the steps to dry the friction wheel assembly. Replace the frame cover and the snowblower is ready for use. The friction wheel assembly is manufactured and compatible with MTD, Craftsman, Troy-Bilt, Noma, Murray, Ariens, Husqvarna, Snapper and Yard Man snowblowers. This is a genuine OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and it is sold individually.

This genuine MTD speed selector cable attaches the speed control lever to the snowblower's ground drive system to regulate and maintain the speed of the snowblower.Though speed selector cables are highly durable, they can be subject to damage as a result of exposure to inclement weather, impact upon collision, and general decline. Signs of a damaged speed selector cable can include malfunctioning regulation of speed, an overheating engine, or black smoke rising from the engine. If any of these symptoms occur, the speed selector cable should be checked and replaced immediately, as the snowblower cannot function properly without it. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This speed selector cable is compatible with the following brands: MTD, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, Yard Machines, and Craftsman. Part sold individually.

A cotter pin, also known as a hitch pin, is used to secure pins and shafts in place. Meant for snowblowers, riding lawnmowers, and lawn tractors, this bow-tie shaped cotter pin has a double-end design making it easy to pull or push through either side of a pre-drilled hole. This pin snaps into a locked position without tension, keeping it secure during operation. Designed for lawn and garden maintenance equipment, this part ensures secure fastening. If the power equipment is used frequently, cotter pins may have to be replaced regularly so it would be practical to keep extra bow tie cotter pins on hand. It is highly recommended that work gloves be worn during the installation of this part. This part is compatible with Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Murray, Yard Machines, MTD, Huskee, Bolens, Yard-Man, and MasterCut brands of lawn mower, snowblower, and log splitters. This is a genuine OEM replacement part that is sold individually.

The shear pin’s purpose is to stop the engine when it is broken. If the machinery hits something hard, the shear pin will break. This prevents injuries that could be fatal. If something large or small becomes clogged or jammed in the auger, the shear pin is meant to snap in half, rendering the auger useless. This happens once the auger reaches a certain point in pressure load, which also prevents damage to the rest of your equipment. The auger part of your machinery cannot turn without a shear pin. Since the purpose of the shear pin is to break on impact, it's a good idea to have several of these on hand for quick replacements. There’s nothing like having your equipment break down in the middle of a job. Repair is simple. Just remove the broken shear pin, line up the auger’s holes, and insert your new shear pin. Use the cotter pin to secure your shear pin. This genuine OEM auger shear pin works in conjunction with small engine equipment with augers made by Craftsman, Cub Cadet, MTD, Troy-Built, Yard Machines, and Yard-Man. This part is sold individually. Consider also ordering an MTD Pin-Bow Tie Cotter or retaining clip.
