well i just have yesterday i finished up my long waited snow thrower work i have a 8hp aries 2 stage snowthrower well i had to replace the drive disc and it was a Pita but thank to air tools and patience i did it in 2 hrs while i had it apart i greased everything up and cleaned the carb up so now she runs like new i still need to change the oil maybe today? but i did it just in time as we are due to get 5-10 inches of white stuff by saturday afternoon mind you this unit is atleast 15 years old the part was 15$ not bad?

Not bad at all. Good job!

I just did a bunch of work on my snow thrower too (posted in the Lounge a while back).

Runs like a charm now...and it'* a 1976 model!!

Yep, cleaned my snow thrower too... it'* a single stage long piece of plastic with a 15" wide shovel. Metal edged tip to break away ice.. it'* a 2001 model.. starts everytime too.. no gas needed either!

snowblower, never heard of it. not like we ever need one

I've got an 8hp, 24" Craftsman model... good stuff.

I've only got the 5 HP 24" Toro...from 1976!!

Runs like a champ and does a nice job!

Heh. Our family caved in the big snow storm shortly after New Year'* Day in 1999, where the Mayor of Toronto called in the army



It helps, we've got a ~6 car length, one-wide (two-wide if you include the neighbour'* mutual drive, we help each other) driveway.

For some reason my dad wanted me to start up out snowblower. (It'* a mid 80'* model) Fist pull and it fired right up, hasn't been started in over a year. I walked by my dad, "oh yeah it started on the first pull, but that'* just because I'm a god" (he can't start that thing if his life depended on it).

Its not like we would use it, I will end up using our special edition wooden handled 30" wide metal shovel!!!
