Engine swap
Original Message   Feb 8, 2015 9:11 am
Hello all. Was thinking of doing an engine swap on my snowblower. I see some on Ebay and other sites that sell engines that don't have the throttle control or fuel shutoff( that would be an easy fix) but was wondering if this would be ok for a snowblower to have the engine at a fixed speed? Thanks Kensico

Oops, you're right I've even had single-stage machines, and simply had brain-blank. I guess I was thinking of when I "boratified" one of my SS, so it also revved up when I squeezed the handle. Sorry about that.
