Re: Old Ariens shifter sticking

The shaft has the same synthetic oil on it as used in the engine, I think it was 5w-20, smeared on with a paper towel.

Old Ariens shifter sticking

Old 7HP Ariens shifter always goes from N into R just fine, and will always go into forward speed 1 but sometimes has a lot of resistance or gets stuck before going to 2, 3 and 4. Once it's in the faster speed settings it advances and retreats just fine - it's like there's a bump in the road shifting sometimes and only upwards between speeds 1 and 2.
The hexagonal shaft with the rubber wheel is lubed, the joints on the shift rod wiggle just fine, the shifter handle slides on it's housing just fine; what could be causing it to bind?

Try it with the gas cap a tad loose, could be clogged/blocked vent.

Re: My Ariens 824 doesn't throw far -- what gives?

Same here, my 926 is going on 7 years old. Used to throw across the yard, then it just dribbled out the chute. Belt was slipping. I adjusted the Attachment Belt Idler and it got me through. It's a temp solution, though, until I can get a pro to look at it. Change your belt before you invest in that. They can stretch and slip. Use the highest quality one you can find, and maybe add some belt dressing.

Question about a Tecumeseh electric starter
#5 Jan 31, 2013 7:50 am |

What would it take, or is it even possible, to convert a 33329C 8 HP starter into a 33328C 7HP starter?
Thanks.
