Snow Blower: I can only move foward if I press easy turn and forward handles

Fri, 10 Feb 2023 08:47:19 -0700

I have a two-stage snowblower and it can only move forward if I press the forward handle simultaneously with the easy turn handle right underneath it. Once I stop pressing both of them, I hear a “cling” sound like a spring and the machine stops as should. When I only press the forward handle it doesn’t move. The snowblower was working fine until I played a little with the speed, but soon after this has happened

I simply cannot find where it attaches and what it is controlling!
There are 3 springs total here, the 2 big ones are all set, properly installed. However I am completely baffled by the 3rd, smallest spring.

How do you test or know if the governor is working. I recently replaced the carburetor due to hunting and surging. The issue is resolved however now the snow thrower runs at WOT unless I choke it almost all the way.

Ariens Snow Blower: Trouble starting snow blower each winter

Sat, 18 Jan 2025 16:37:10 -0700

I have a 2 stage 24 inch electric start. It is about 5 years old. Although each winter it has been difficult to start, this year seemed hopeless, in spite of Stabil added to the high octane gas. First, the starter motor balked, but tapping lightly with a hammer while starting worked (you can remove, open up and sand the corroded parts lightly and it will work!).

It is an incredible pain to get at the choke. There is no air filter, so no need for an access, and the air intake needs to be shielded from snow, so although reasonable, the design makes it no fun to get unto the carb,.

I called our small engine repair shop. No help. BUT, if you look under the black enclosure, you will see a steel tube hanging down with a 10 mm bolt. Turn off the gas flow from the tank to the carburetor. Then, If you remove the small bolt and pump the primer bulb, you will drain the carburetor cup, where water and old gas can be the cause of the non-start. Then replace the bolt, turn on the flow, and with luck you will be able to start the unit. This was from a Youtube clip, and it saved our hide!
