The weekend probably has a lot folks busy with various chores. I'm sure someone will be able to help you in the next couple of days or so. Wish I could help, but I've never even heard of Jari Jaw Snowblower.

the problem with it is the foward and reverse dont work right after looking at it the levers are "wired together" but i think it should have springs? and when you push the rod in for forward it dont stay in same with reverse if you pull it out what keeps the rod in place??

thanks



Was that the Star Wars model? Oh wait that was Jar jar Binks. :D

Try searching here. Last year a woman who is involved with the company that is a descendant of Jari posted here, and a year or two before the son of the original owner was here also. There may be some info there. I had never even heard of these but found out about it from those threads.

Who the hell let all the morning people run things?

What is your model?

If a tensioner is being held tight with wire then it probalby should have a spring.  Many makers have drive plate that always turns at speed and a friction disk that brought up to meet it after a clutch lever press.  The wheel drive belt is always tight and held tight by a tensioner pulley usualy under spring tension.  If similar, look at the tensioner and for a hole or small bar that could catch a spring.  Then look 2-4 inches away for a hole, slot or edge over which a spring could be put.  Get a spring at a local hardware store to keep the tension reasonable.  Other than that, take a pictures and post them.  To post a picture put it somewhere on the net.  When posting, the post header has a letter shape.  Click that and insert the link to where your picture is.  The posting software will get the picture and insert it into the post.
