My previous message said "you will have to fix the blockage in the air vent on the cap."  The cap has an element in it that allows air in but keeps water out.  Have a good look at the cap.  You'll see how it works.  If you can't fix it, get a new one.

I had someone look at my snowblower and they said I had the gas cap on too tight? I didnt think that would matter?

Thanks

For your help

Timothy:

As per our previous correspondence, your gas cap should be vented.  If it isn't, it's the wrong cap.  Rather than operating the machine with a loose fuel cap, I suggest you either fix or replace the cap you have.  Good luck.
