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

I'm looking at a snowblower with a Briggs & Stratton 205. The 205 is rated at 9 lbs torque. Is that a decent amout of power ? It is on a Ariens Compact 24

That engine is more than likely equivalent to a 6.5hp ohv engine which should produce about 9lb/ft of torque.

depends on the load....but in general NO its not a power house..its on the bottom end of power scale.
