If it's Briggs powered it'll have a throttle...

Your engine information is not correct. Briggs makes 205cc, 249cc, 305cc, 342cc 4-stroke horizontal shaft snow engines (models 12, 15, 20, 21 respectively). The two engines you are referring to are likely the same (if perhaps trimmed out differenty). 249cc Model 15. The former horsepower ratings for these were 8.0hp (1100 torque series) and 8.5hp (1150 torque series). The 9.0 hp equivalent is 305cc (1350 torque series). The quality of the torque curves on these 249cc engines (relative to their horsepower ratings) isn't spectacular. The perceived operational torque would be closer to other small platform engines (Tecumseh 195cc, Briggs 205cc, Honda GX200, etc) than midplatform engines (Tecumseh 318cc, Briggs 305cc, etc.). That is, the next size up will give you much more engine. The model 15 will probably work for a 26" housing with a 12" fan, but the 28" might be pushing it a little... PK |

Your unit probably doesn't have the same problem. Sounds more like a worn out friction disk. Pop off the bottom cover and have a look.
It will also take the same performance drive kit as mentioned elsewhere in this thread if you so desire.

Check the throttle stop as well to make sure there is nothing shorting it out when the unit is running.

Re: Ariens 1130DLE 921003 Loose drive carrier disc

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, I must say a video is worth a few thousand more. This is the
first time I've seen a youtube video used to provide info in a discussion in an internet forum. Impressive.
The carrier's movement looks perfectly normal to me. There has to be a bit of looseness so things don't
bind. I'd expect that the slack would be taken up one way or another when the traction is engaged.
Have you had a chance to look at what the other turning parts are doing when you turn both wheels at the
same time ? Also try when you turn only one wheel at a time and the differential makes the other wheel turn
in the opposite direction just to see if the differential is making any noise on its own (you have the new
limited slip differential so I'm not entirely sure how it behaves).
Is that white stuff coating everything salt ? If so, no wonder you have rust problems. I think you may live
near the ocean, but with the quantity of salt they spread on my street I wouldn't have expected that to make
any difference. But I don't get salt on the inside. There is a cover on the bottom of your machine I take it,
so is the salt just in the air ?
Paul Exactly what I was thinking. I don't see anything abnormal...?
