Yes have checked the fuel cap - but will again. I did pop a hole through the screen in the fuel tank thinking this was plugged. I replaced all fuel lines, primer bulb, line to prime bulb, and fuel shut off valve as well since I was installing a new carb. I am going to look into this plugged hole in the jet also after going through the adjustment sequence that was described in an earlier message.

Okay friiy - I have sent you an email - hope there is something in the manual that will help. Snowblower is in great shape for a 1995 - no rust. This Ariens Pro really cuts through snow when it is operating right.

New carb was supposed to be a new Tecumseh - came in their box. Not sure on the jet - does have your usually adjustment screws. Does not smoke, does not use oil. It surges at high speed and will usually stall at low speed, can not move throttle all the way to slowest speed setting. Brought it to Ariens dealer where purchased. They diagnosed as compression problem - they changed head gasket - no success. Last year I could blow snow - but it would stall also if it got real deep. Recall it was probably not surging (at least as much) under load, but would when I would disengage the augers. Dealer said low compression could affect governor.

The first problem occurred in 2007 - took to dealer - they said the carb had dirt/gunk in it. They told me not to keep fuel in tank, even with stablizer and to replace my steel gas can and buy a plastic one. They replaced float and cleaned carb - cost about $130. Same problem in 2008 with the surging - so I figured carb got dirty and instead of paying someone to clean - bought a new one online for about $75. The replaced carb and surged with first start.

Thanks Snowman that helped, found the manual with descriptions, it does have the 13hp Briggs. I am trying to decide between a new 921018 Deluxe 30 Platinum and this new 2008 st1332dle. I know the 30 Platinum has an aluminum gear box - trying to figure out how these hold up. My problem is that the State uses salt and when they plow in the end of my driveway that is often turned to heavy snow, some ice and sometimes slushy. Currently have a ST1032 purchased in 1995 - and this pro model has always been able to handle this. The Tecumseh HMSK100 has been surging and diagnosed as low compression, new carb did not help. So I need a new one - can not find a new engine.

What is difference between Auto Differential on the ST1332 and Automatic Traction Control on the Deluxe 30 - this along with the gear boxes seems to be the big differences.

A dealer has an Ariens ST1332DLE snowblower and is listing the model number as 926028. Says it has a 13hp Briggs engine, 32 inch wide and 120V electric start. I can not find anything listing this model number. They say it is a 2008 model - brand new. Anyone have any information on this model.
