Engine Family WTPXS.3182AF
Displacement 318

The Model information on the sticker on the cover below carb area is worn off.
I would like to find a manual for it if possible but obviously I need to know what to look for.
I'm having a bit of a problem that just started a week ago, when it gets into the deep snow it starts backfiring and then shuts off. I have taken the carb off and cleaned it best I could but I'm not sure which position the bowl should be in as far as securing back on as the drain on the spring plunger is possibly in the incorrect position. I'm hoping I can get some help with the issue I'm having as well as some input as to where to set the idle Speed screw the one with the screw/spring. As well if the float has a certain setting set with the tang. I have worked on motorcycles with carbs but never with snowblowers or the like.
Near as I can tell Googling the above engine model number it has a Tecumseh 640169 - Tecumseh Carburetor
Thanks any help would be appreciated.

Just a shot in the dark here, but that condition can be a lean carburetor condition
Have you checked the fuel flow to the carb?
Take the line off and see how fast it fills a can/container.
it should be a steady flow for the size of the line.
Did you blow the carb out well with an air hose?
Sorry,I don't have the number of turns for the jet screws and don't know if you even have an adjustable main jet as I'm not familiar with what you are working on.
I don't think the bowl drain piddle valve has any particular direction or "clocking" on re installation.
at least the ones I'm familar with don't
