Re: replacing auger blade on Sears snowthrower

The quickest way would be to cut out the RH side of the auger bucket, remove/replace the rake, then weld the cutoff piece back on. Marty Marty, This would be on equipment thats your own, right? You wouldn't do this method unless you had the owners permission ,would you? I'd be crucifed up here if i done that with out owners permission.

Hey Guys, A couple of questions , Whats required to become a service man for snowblower companies or dealers (mtd, craftman, toro etc.) Like, do you have to do a test ? What are the qualifications that they usually look for ? Can you buy service/repair manuals for mechanics out there for different blowers (not engine manuals) and where do you get them? Do the companies do any training sessions and where? I live in NFLD Canada and I don't ever hear of anyone putting off any seminars to attend. Thanks , Snowballdgs. |

Re: Oil coming out the crankcase tube

Loudpedal, The oil cap on the tecumseh engines should not be screwed in when checking the level So sorry about that guys, false information there .I knew the difference of that . But as jubol said, the dip stick must be screwed in to measure oil on tec's. Denis, The purpose of the crankcase breather valve is allow the air in the crankcase to escape. The engine must have vacuum to operate properly. It has a oneway valve that allows air out but outside air cannot get in. If the air cannot escape the air pressure builds in the base and blows oily/air mist out of the breather. Thats why make sure that the dipstick Oring is good and tube is tight. There are other possibilities but I don't think that they are your problem, your engine would be to new for this. I hope this explanation helps you. Loudpedal, As brorjace said,tipping the engine to much of an angle on the breather side will cause this to happen.

Loudpedal, I agree to what jubol has said , also there's the possibility that the breather could be bad.(pin holes blocked or the breather valve stuck).Check to make sure that the rpms are not out of wack.Over revving is the cause for this a lot of the time. Around 3500-3600 should be good .The oil cap on the tecumseh engines should not be screwed in when checking the level.26 ounces for this engine.Hopefully you don't have anything more serious then that . Happy fixing, Snowballdgs. |
