Gas powered Toro Power Shovel from the 80's. The recoil starter broke and was removed. By drilling a 1.5" hole in the side I can put a 5/8" deep socket on the flywheel bolt and spin it with a drill. Starts and runs. I never thought I'd say this about something from the 80's, but too bad they don't make 'em like this anymore!
Yes, the motor is about to stall just before I shut it down. I only put in a small splash of gas to demo it. It was running for about a minute before I started filming and must have run dry as I tipped it to show the hole/flywheel. It runs great and throws snow 20+ feet.
