My 11HP Airens snowblower (on its first try of the season) caught for 20 seconds and died. Last winter the carb would leak gas while sitting. So dealing with the carb was a summer 2015 project I never got to. I looked on Ebay and the carb is $40 and a rebuild kit is $15. Seems a no brainer as long as these aftermarket carbs are decent.
This is one of those carbs where the bowl is part of the base and the top of the bowl comes off with 4 screws. I suppose I could try and clean it as is, but if I tear or see a damaged gasket then I need a rebuild kit.
Its almost Feb and there has yet to be snow to snowblow, but I assume there will be some this winter.
