I know enough about engine repair to know I don't know enough about engine repair...
Storm hit NE yesterday and trusty snowblower won't start.
- Drained the gas
- Changed the plug
- Blew carburetor cleaner in through the gas line to the carburetor
It will turn over with the electric starter and let's out a puff or two of exhaust and then stops. I tried messing with the carb float screw (as this had been a problem in the past) but the best I get is it running for about 3 seconds and then stops.
This is a fairly new Ariens 8HP model.
Can anyone pass on some ideas on troubleshooting? Thanks!
