Re: Buying a Snowblower - $1500 or less - Advice needed!
#3   Mar 4, 2008 1:23 am
Here is some advice it may help it may not .I purchased a Husqvarna snow thrower with 11HP Tecumseh Snow King engine. I always felt that Tecumseh had the better engines for show throwing equipment and Briggs & Stratton had the better engines for the Lawn equipment. Well my $1000.00 Husqvarna  which is 2yrs 4  myhs old just blew the engine . The rod gracked the block . How  the techs don't seem to now for suer Maybe  some moisture got in there or the throtle frooze up.Regardless it 's going to cost $475.00 to replace just the short block or i can buy a completlry new engine for around $500.00  which will give me another 2 yr warranty (ha Ha) Here is the killer for 13 yrs i had a Murray that i purchase through Home Depot back around 1996 It had a Tecumseh engine. That unit was still working  when i gave it to my plumber to help cover some extra cost on some work i had down .Now that unit I paid around $250.00 which was far less than it was origonally going for $549.99 but since that year i brought it we had no snow and Home depot wrer stuck with a lot left over. That unit i kept outside under my back deck never covered and it ran good On the heay snow did take some time. But the newer thrower  i kept covered on my front deck. check the oil evertime i used it . Let it run down   before burn off extra gas in carb.  bUt 1 day this week when  we had about 8 inches of snow it failed  and 2 days before ran alright. About the same time i brought mine  My older neighbor brrought a Sears Craftsman. it had a brigs and Stratton engine on it .I beleive this was a first time that the Sears models some were going with Briggs. Oneday he asked me if i could try to start his machine .I couldn't the engine had seized up. Moisture had seep down into th eengine. That what he told me . They said it was of a poor muffler design the condensation after you turn the unit off ran back down . Since then they have corrected the porblem along with trying to correct the ethanol in the gas which  means you have to take some extra precautions.

Whatever you decide research  and ask around  after what happen to me i' would still stick with what i brought

Good luck
