Any preference between the Tecumseh engine or the Briggs & Stratton?

Not that I ever expect to need a snow blower again...

big whoop - a foot of snow.

boo freakin' hoo.

I'd like to see you out shovelling with one arm.

thats why god invented kids and snow blowers.

Besides..it was higher in the drifts. I actually had to lift my Toro
snowblower up and take off the top 6- 8 inches of snow so I could move
forward on the remainder.

you lifted up a snow blower? you mean a snow broom - one of those
little models?


No... I mean a Toro 1800 Power Curve Snowthrower.

tecumseh has a the same problem ficht had - they made some bum engines
at one time under a mass produce license with mtd - all small 3 hp
engines used on push mowers - which damn near killed the company.
however, they made a good engine - i have one of my ariens snow
blowers has a 12 hp tecumseh and its a strong engine - never a hiccup.

if i had my preference though, id go with b&s industrial series
engines like on the 15 hp, 36 inch blower i have. that engine is
indestructible.


You are absolutely correct. The larger Tecumseh engines are fabulous,
have steel cylinder sleeves, etc.

No..it's not a 'snow broom'... that's the smaller size!
You're as bad as my brother-in-law. He bought a Kubota B21 to clear his
driveway and play around with during the summer.

rotfl!!!

i hope to hell they have the auger and blower shear pinned. hit some
ice and that thing would come apart with all kinds of interesting
shrapnel.

did you notice how much snow was being thrown out of the bin from the
main auger? too much power.

i liked the gas powered blender though. :)

What is a snowblower? for that matter, what is snow?

Snow is what we get in the truck and drive a couple hours to ski on. Then
get in the truck and return home. Where cold is 50 degrees.
