That's what I thought too. I heard that Honda have different jets installed depending on the area altitude. High altitude jets are available through Honda distribtutors. These are fixed jets that are sized so the engine runs richer. The only other alternative is to use a jet ream and open up the one you have. It was a standard practice on the pre fuel injection Kehin carbureted Harleys. It sounds a lot more complicated than it is. The trick is to have a complete set of jet reams and the pita is to have the discipline to go up one size at a time taking out the jet and reinstalling it until you find the sweet spot.With a snow blower you would want to do it when the temperature is approximately that at which you use the machine. You wouldn't want to jet the carb in July for use in January.
At best it still would be an average and unless the engine is so lean it is back firing I think you should just learn to live with it. Marc

Nope. Big boy HS1132 is coming out to play today, it is taking care of two foot drifts and EOD, plus the neighbor's too, and 250' of sidewalk to the park. The 421QE is taking care of the my walkways. And the HS621 is taking care of the my sidewalks. Woo Hoo! :) Bonus points - you get to use all your toys in one storm!!!!
