Hello:
Have a practically brand new Ariens snow blower with a Tecumseh engine. Used just a few times last year; worked perfectly. Having a bit of trouble this year. First time used this year, as we haven't had any snow to talk about.
Starts right up, runs just fine for 5 to perhaps 8 minutes, and then stops. Easy to start again, then same thing: 5-8 minutes, and stops. And again.
Not clogged. New gas.
Doubt that it needs a new plug, as it's been used probably no more than half a dozen times since bought. Think it can be gummed up already ?
Anyway was wondering if this "runs and then stops" symptom, for all you engine experts out there, might suggest what is wrong ?
Thanks, Bob
