Started with the shovel and decided that was just stupid; gas into the snowblower, primed, and pushed the start - bang! Off & running on the 2nd try after sitting idle and dry for 2+ years.
Cleared the shared driveway and pipe.stem and one of the neighbor's around the front.
Similar story. Had about 7 or 8 inches and got industrious and decided to unleash the Simplicity, which hadn't been run in 4 or 5 years! Cleared the junk out in front of it, poured in a bit of Sta-Bil (do that every now and again, say 3 or 4 times a year) and plugged in the electric start. Been so long since I ran it I had to think about it a bit! Hit the start button twice and VIOLA!
The thing is a commercial grade 16 1/2 horse with a 36" mouth. Like you. did my drive and the neighbors. Only hard part is turning the BEAST at the end of a pass! Kinda glad I ran the thing. Doesn't do them any good to sit around too much! Got a rototiller that's gummed up and won't run for just that reason!
