This one says it fits the strikemaster ice auger tc300.. if everything looks to line up and its like the one you have then I would just buy this and forget about it for the season. Rebuild your factory one this summer when its nice out https://www.amazon.com/640231A-Carburetor-Replacement-Tecumseh-Engines/dp/B07YBWRQZ2/ref=sr_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=tecumseh+tc300+carburetor&qid=1613597706&sr=8-6Theres a lot of cheaper ones too on amazon (I listed one here a second ago but deleted it because the reviews werent good). Search "tc300 ice auger carb"
Spray it with Seafoam. Works wonders.
what now your on team seafoam??lol the op should uncrew the 4 screws on the bottom of the carb pull out the fuel pump diaphragm out carefully and see if its dry and rotted or has pinholes or rips.ive posted part no.numerous times.I recommend guys search the auger section.Tecumseh used the same fuel pump and carb on almost all 70 and 80s models except the one with the little square carb on newer models.
No, I just knew that tongue-in-cheek quip would get a rise outta you.
For anyone reading this thread, definitely listen to Rebelss and Dr. Speckler. They know their stuff about augers and small engines in general. They recently helped get my (old gas) auger running better. Thanks guys!
That's really nice to hear, Butcher...and a rarity! Thanks and welcome!
Like most HELP!!!! posts the original poster never responds back with any updates as to what worked or not ...so sad . So getting a KUDOS is very refreshing .
yes!!im always interested in the fix or if it went into the recycling bin..
All I can offer is 2 words. Non Ethanol Or is that one word? Rebelss help me out with that. I'll accept your ABC hat. LOL

Although I've had pretty good luck with the cheap china carbs, Dr is spot on. It sounds a lot harder than it is to clean the carb, but it isn't. Seems like the old gas auger carbs are all relatively the same too, even if you can't find a youtube video with your exact one, they are close enough that watching a video will show you what to do.
