Ariens624E Likes to run with choke part way on
Original Message   Feb 19, 2008 3:43 pm
HI all,

I just bought an Ariens 624E snowblower and it was deliverd today. My question is it seems to run best with the choke partially on. I havn't been really able to blow any snow to really warm it up good as all out snow here in NH is basically solid as ice right now.

Could it be that it just needs a good long time to warm up?  Also it is an OHV engine and I have heard that they sometimes need to be run with choke partially on because the emmision seetings cause them to run so very lean.

I followed the manual exactly and started it on low throttle full choke and then slowly backed off the choke but when i get to the last choke seeting it starts to sputter out. If i return quickly to the higher choke setting it goes right back to running great again.

I was hoping someone had some info or thoughts on this. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
