YEA! I finally got my 25 yr old snowblower fixed!.
Bring on the snow!
Finding parts was a headache at times. Spark plug, head gasket, carburetor, new head bolts, and belt. The 5 old head bolts was a straight edge 1/4-20 screws. Didn't want to take a chance on them for retorquing. So I replaced them with 5, 1/4-20 flange bolts. The guts of the muffler fell apart from the vibrations. So I have a gutted muffler. The neighbor across the street will love that.
