It`s been a terrible snowy winter in south of Norway (where i live) as well, so this

snow thrower was one of my best investments!

I just installed my own made Weight bar`s (made two) and it made a nice  difference.

My local dealer wanted about $150 + freight, so i decided to make my own.

I found a stainless steel bar on my job. It mesured 10cm width and 10mm thicness,

i cut two bar`s 61cm long and drilled two holes in em. By looking at the picture i guess i have double the

weight than the original part (my bar`s is hanging about 10mm lower).

I didn`t weigh it but i guess my bar`s is about 15-16Kg.

It`s no way of advancing the timing as the coil is fixed.

The only adjustment i was able to do, was to minimize the distance between the coil and the flywheel,

in order to create the strongest spark possible. The smaler the gap, the stronger the spark!

I did that by losning the bolts holding the coil and then put a piece of paper between the coil and flywheel and then

fastening the bolts again. Then remove the paper and rotate the flywheel in order to check that it run freely.

As my flywheel was not 100% round i had to do this a couple of times.

I`m gonna make a custom bracket to hold the coil that makes me able to adjust the timing.

I just didn`t have the time at this moment. I read somewhere that the optimal timing was 26 degree`s.

I don`t know what the original timing is, but from what i understand it will mayby give me 1-2 HP more.

Also here are som more pictures of where this "plastic manifold" sits on the engine!

I have installed the bigger pulley and the impeller kit now and it throws snow like crazy.

The only complaint i have is that i think mayby the clarence impeller kit did make it into a big air fan, as it

make a big "white out" when the snow is fluffy. I`m not sure if it is the increased speed of the snow or

if it is that it now also blows a lot of air as well that make some of  the snow disolve in mid air.

I also found a picture of the Weight bar installed on a Norwegian Husky! As you can see it is installed inside the bucket!
