Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Everytime i get in my old beat up pickup to go look at some ope my wife starts to hum the theme to Sandford and son.  For those of you that are to young to know this tune just watch TVLAND and you will hear it. Today i picked up a couple of FREE snowblowers. The first is a 7hp techumseh Jari 2 stage dual auger that has been weathered pretty bad. It has no spark at all. Any suggestions on what to look for ? The bolts are very rusty so taking it apart wont be fun. The second is a Very very clean Toro single stage with a Briggs engine. Starts on the first pull and runs strong. Looks like it has no miles on it whatsoever. The only problem with it is that the solid tires are pealing from themselves. Any tips on where i could find such an old tire ? They look to be bonded to the rim so i think im out of luck on this one. I was thinking of using some type of epoxy and trying to glue them on ?? Thought i would post some pic's for you
