My googlefu fails. Briggs carb needed.

[GeauxLSU]

OK, I need a carb for a Troy Bilt model 24A-494G063 (aka CS499). It's a 10hp Briggs motor.
Help......

Edited to add Briggs engine Model 205412 Type 0126E1.

Possibly interchangeable?

Yeah don't know. That's the problem. I can't find anything that is a direct reference. The guy who is repairing it is telling me it's $120 from his source and the part number he is using 694876. But as far as I can tell that is only the part number for the spacer but he says it's for the carb?
I just can't believe it cost anywhere near that for a small engine carb. Various searches offer about 100 options, all under $30 (some even supposedly USA made) but NONE show the relevant part numbers so I can verify in their information that will be compatible with this engine (which I think is the Briggs 200000 series).
And of course it's Saturday so Briggs, Troy-Bilt etc. are all closed.

My experience with some Big Brand equipment sellers like SEARS/Craftsman, etc. is that they make simple changes to the basic power plant, connecting accessories, etc. to keep the owner from going to second sources for parts. Engines are a favorite place. I had one engine on a craftsman blower where they'd had Briggs change the shaft size by 1/8th of an inch and there was no regular Briggs engine with that crank shaft diameter that would work....I had to buy a Tecumseh and turn down that crank to fit the blower/chipper mandrel... My advise is to get to the Briggs engine and find the SPECIFIC number/serial plate and then enter that number on Amazon or wherever instead of the Toro-supplied part number....

Get a kit, rebuild it.

I’d still try the Amazon and mate it up and if it doesn’t fit... send it back.

I agree...that's a good option...it can be done with not too much effort

Too late. Repair dude has it. He would rebuild it, but based on the pics, I'm just going to replace it. (It has prompted me to start shopping for an ultrasonic cleaner though....)

I have done a few that didnt require anything but taking apart and cleaned. Used same gaskets, o rings, etc., or look through extras and find something i need.

Half of it it is what jet sizes are fitted.
