A little bit of regular maintenance will do wonders when you’re trying to keep a snowblower from clogging. Here are a few of my recommendations.

Knowing how to check for spark on a snowblower will be of great benefit to any homeowner. In the event that a snowblower doesn’t start, I typically recommend checking for spark first. So how do we go about doing that?

It’s important to know how to lubricate a snowblower. There aren’t a lot of parts that need lubricating, but doing so will prolong the life of your machine.

There could be a lot of reasons your Craftsman snowblower won’t start. Or any snowblower for that matter. But if you look at the bigger picture, there’s really only 3 general things that could be wrong. By isolating the components, we can figure it out and fix it.

You can run a snowblower with the choke on – for the short term. Prolonged use of the choke presents the risk of engine damage. Read on to find out why.

If you find your snowblower will only run on choke, you’ve come to the right place. The short answer to this problem is that your machine is encountering a lean air/fuel mix condition. Fix that, and it should be able to run without the choke.
