Hi, I have purchased a used Craftsman Snow Blower and need a key to start it, soes anyone have one or where can I buy one. Owners manual does not show a Part number for this item (Ignition Key). Thanks for your help.

Don't know about this particular snow blower but you have two choices if you cannot buy a replacement:
1) go to a locksmith. They will start with a blank that fits and then start grinding a key that works by seeing where the marks are on the blank when they put it in. Its kind of interesting to see them do that.
2) replace the entire key switch. It is probably a simple two wire system, and most key switches you would find in a car/ boat/ small engine parts supply would work.
