At Least the Snowblower Works
I'm happy to report that the snow blower works.
I usually wait until the last minute to see if the snow blower works. This year was no different.
I went out to the gas station about 30 minutes after the snow started. I had to get a gallon of gas, $3.06- such a deal, and mix it with oil as I have a two-stroke engine (it was cheaper). If I ever have to get another snowblower, I'll spend the extra money and get one I only have to add gas. I am never quite sure what amount of oil to put in per gallon.
I had to wipe snow off the gas can before I could put the gas in, now that's waiting until the LAST minute.
Once home, I poured the gas in and tried unsuccessfully several times to start it. It has an electric start, but I can't find the cord. Then, I broke down and read the directions. I find that is a good move when all else fails. Oh, yes, I have to set the choke. Once I did, it started right up.
I Fear No Snow as Long as the Snowblower is Working. --RoadDog
