  • No dust in the winter time. No need for an air filter. You'll never see one on a snowblower.

  • This guy does not seam to know much about engines even though I have to give him props for at least trying... He flooded it and got the plug wet before he even gave it a pull... Stable is for storing fuel not starting.... Air filters are not needed in the winter due to there being no dust. Then he swapped out the old plug with one that wasn't wet with gas and was all excited thinking he fixed something. And then it smoked like a bitch due to the shit ton of fuel he primed in and the stable.

  • nice little two stroke

  • good job...thanks for the review

  • Dear god could you prime that thing any more?. I wonder how flooded that engine was. Also that bar is only to engage the auger its not to start it. If you tilt the unit forward a little the auger will hit the ground and pull it though the snow. Finally snow throwers don't need air filters because they are not used in dusty conditions.

  • so. power prepelled means that the auger will pull the Machine along when engaged. ALSO i noticed at first that you pulled the auger bar when you pulled the cord. dont. it ads more strain to you and on the rope. its not a bail-bar like a mower

  • .024 - to .027 plug gap It looks like a Tecumsey engine, however i doubt it will pick up any more than 1 to 2 inches of powdered snow As you already had one of these blowers id of bought some new sneakers a plug wrench and a feeler gage at wallmart lol

  • Techumsa Engines (Good Engines), The "Air Vane" Govener won't let it "OVER" REV., when It bites into the snow, the rpm's drop, and the throttle advances. The float bowl design (factory tuned venturi in the float bowl bolt) is newer to eliminate the "Jets" and the associated problems w/them.

  • nvm u saw it in the vid later

  • lol at the bar it says impeller control XD

  • but will it blend ?
