I have a 15 year old Ariens 7hp Tecumsah engined 2 stage snow blower. It
starts and runs well but no longer pitches the snow more than 6-8 feet.
I have adjusted the idler pulley and the cable to the clutch is tight enough.
I see no other adjustments to make for the the impeller. I've tried every
thing I know to fix it but nothing has changed. The belts have very little
time on them. I haven't worked on the throttle and am wondering whether I
should have more power under load.
My dad had a similar unit with a 6hp engine and that thing would throw the
snow clear across a 30 foot street.
Mine never did move the snow like his did but it is getting unusable.
Any ideas? Thanks.
