Snowblower advice needed!

[Ed]

Hey Scott-

Thanks for the info...for $200 I guess i really can't go wrong. No snow up here...so I will have to do a dry test today.

All I can say is that i am done with shoveling!

I agree with Scott that they typically don't get very many hours, like most boat motors here in Rochester. I have found the single biggest problem with those carbed 4 strokes is that they rarely have Sta-Bil put in them and the carb gets fowled with varnish. Count on a carb rebuild. Other than that, it's no different than buying an old outboard, seals, fluids and filters.

A GMC 3/4 ton pick-up with a Western Pro plow would be a better choice...

Ed for $200, get it. I have an old Ariens that they were going to throw out at work here. I rebuilt the carbs, and put a coil on it and the thing screams.
Best part is, my 14 year old likes playing with it so I don't have to do the driveway.
