Hello my friends,
now that the nice weather is upon us, I am gearing up to "hibernate" my Ariens 927LE for the summer...
The gas tank is still almost full but I had added Motomaster concentrated small engine tune up, from Canadian Tire, so is this enough? Or should I just run the engine dry? I don't have access to Seafoam so is there anything else I should use?
What else should I look for? I already popped off the wheels and greased the axles, but I haven't done anything to the cables, impeller, belts, etc... I have White lithium grease as well as regular 3-in-1 oil, and WD40...Are these ok?
Any advice for a noob? I didn't pay $1000 to have a machine that's going to last me 2-3 years...
Thanks guys and gals...

Ok, thanks guys,
one more question (for now). In my manual it indicates that the service position when performing work on the machine is to tip it up on its' impeller housing. My question to you is whether or not I can leave it like that all summer or if I should just rig up some 2x4's to take the weight off the wheels and store it horizontally?Also, if i have some chipped paint scratches inside the discharge chute, should I sand them down and apply some paint or not worry about them?
Good suggestion about the "T" in the fuel line Bill, I think that'll be my next project...
thanks again for all the advice..
