How do I find the model number for my Tillotson Carb?

[777funk]

I have one that needs some parts and want to make sure I get the right one. It's on a 281xp. I'm pretty sure I know the carb model number but want to make sure before I order parts.
thanks in advance!

Should be stamped on the side.

Right about here

As you can see above- you have to add the "H" then the first 3 numbers followed by a letter is your carb.
In the above example = HS 216A.

If it has been replaced from original with a knock off carb- those references are not likely to be there.

Found the 216C...... if that helps.
