Old Ariens 10M6D, Tecumseh H60 6HP, dies under load, misfires

Hey gang. Have a 1968 Ariens M106D model blower, with Tecumseh 6HP. Was running well when put away last spring, fuel was stabiled and drained. Fired up unit last weekend and seemed to run well, first snow was today, and it cleared about 3 passes and then started bogging down and dying out. I suspected dirty carb, disassembled and cleaned it, no varnish, just a few specks of dirt in the bowl. ( gone now). Reassembled, started, having a hell of time getting it to idle, finally adjusted to idle properly but it now dies under load. I have to slowly increase speed to max, slowly engage clutch, once auger is turning as soon as I hit snow with it, it dies. Won't start again unless throttle is set to idle. I am thinking of replacing / rebuilding carb, but in the back of my mind wondering if this is an ignition problem. Any thoughts? Remen,er, she was clearing like a son of a gun for 3 passes of my driveway this morning.. then the fun started. Spark seems strong but plug is black-ish. Thank you for any help. Craig |

Ariens Model 710M information

Hi All, I inherited an older model Ariens 710M snowthrower. At least I think that is the model. There are two ID plates on the machine, one on the side of the thrower assembly, reads 7-10M 141871, which I think is the model / serial. There is another ID plate on the frame below the engine that reads 10M6D 055844. I am trying to determine the age of this machine... I am guessing early 70's. It has a Tecumseh 6 HP motor on it. Does anyone know? I also need to track down an owners / service manual for it from Ariens. Will be working on that. Aside from the question on the year, I have some others: What type engine oil? What type of lube for the auger / gearbox? I see the zerk fittings, there also appears to be a drain /fill on the impeller area. What tire pressure? ( Newer tires, no PSI rating on them). And can I get tire chains for it? Thanks much for any help you can provide. Craig |
