This is brutal to try and watch! Stfu and just do the job STUPIT

I got one of those and gotta change the cage bearings, but mine doesn't have the spacers under the motor.....

🇨🇦 👍 I just bought a SC 3265 , it has had two owners and not knowing these people I am going to pull it apart just make sure all is kosher inside, your tips will help look for things to look for sure

You're the only one I've ever heard talk about the tiller bucking in hard ground. What is going on and how can I fix it?

Good job thanks

I would look for a used rear PTO before I spent that money on gears and bearings. People around here give the tillers away mostly because they don’t know what they are and could care less

I am doing the same thing that you doing but also I am putting everything in the in the rear tines to bearings and gear to

WOW! Cool THANKS. I sold my baby to some Mexican friends and they pretty much destroyed it and called me back to fix it. Got her runn'n good and put new tines on her but had to get an after market ignition switch wich plugs same way but doesn't work same. Anyway when I whent to take it for a test spin with tines engaged all the wires smoked to the limit switches. Need a diagram to save alot of trouble. In other words HELP!

You mechanical people are amazing. The positive talk at the beginning got me to try fixing my mower again. My mower is a different brand, but the motor is basically the same. The failed bottom bearing made the armature off-center and scraping against the works. Only 2 of the balls were still inside the failed bearing. Trying to remove the whole bearing, it came apart and the outer ring of the bearing is left stuck in the housing. Nothing at all is visible through the opening in the housing to push it out by. Trying to pry it out from the inside just mangled the things I pried with. I lost. The manufacturer won. They are experts. There has to be some way to get out the rest. Right?

Old people hate change. Most modern vehicles do not have carburetors for a reason. The gasoline . They went with EFI because it is a closed system . Which prevents moisture from contaminating the fuel . The system is proven. Time will tell if more small engines switch over to EFI. Add stabilizer to your fuel and top off the fuel tank before you store it away for long-term. .

not a horse

Punta Cana is a nice place to visit

Such horrible horrible camera work Totally agree with your statement about working on our stuff but I couldn’t finish watching just to painful I’m sure I’ll find plenty elsewhere

Great info, thanks

This is the only video where the tiller looks like mine. Can you tell me what year it is and what model?

Where do you get rebuild kit from?

Yeah EFI does work better when it works but it's mostly there for marketing and ridiculous to fix. I've had my Ariens for 23 winters and the only time I ever had to mess with the carb was when I didn't drain it for the summer. I don't see any point in getting EFI. Same with electric chute controls. Manual controls are not hard at all so why introduce electronics? It's so silly but that's what you get when people are obsessed with feature lists. Ariens has to offer these things or lose sales.

Where were you able to purchase parts for this tiller ??

Excellent info (video could have been a little shorter without sacrificing quality 😊)

My opinion, Ariens quality has really gone down in recent years. Simple things, like not having the pulleys lined up, having the hot engine melting snow right above the belts causing bits to slip or not having wire harness plugs securely plugged in.

Yeah, I bought the same Ariens EFI unit a few years back (fortunately it was only 1600 or 1700 back then), and had it in the shop twice while it was still under warranty. It still runs, but will only make about half power before it starts to run poorly. I wish there was a way to convert it to use a carburetor. Fortunately I now have a tractor mounted snowblower that I mostly use, and I'd sell the Ariens, but I'd feel bad about saddling someone with this piece of...

Once ariens stopped using the Tecumseh engine in 08 they pretty much became junk. I had a deluxe 28 I bought new and the dam thing never worked or ran right. I bought an older st924 and that things runs like a banshee.

My tiller wont stay in gear

I am not a mechanic. My Honda generator has a battery start and a pull start. It also has EFI, but I can pull start it with a dead battery or with the battery disconnected; I have not tried the dead battery pull start yet as I have not had a dead battery, but I have tried the disconnected battery pull start and it works like a charm. I have no idea how Honda does this, EFI with no battery, but their system has worked flawlessly for years now. I also run non-oxygenated gas and start it once a month to let it run gas through the system and to charge the battery, which is what my dealer told me to do, in addition to putting a trickle charger on the battery a couple of times a year. If they could put an EFI system on a snow blower, like my Honda genny has, maybe that would solve a lot of the issues Arien's is having with their EFI systems on their snow blowers?

My friend bought an EFI snowblower a few years ago. At the time I didn't really know anything about small engines. When was brand new when he showed it to me I didn't even notice EFI written on it. Now he's having issues with it.

I have the same model as you, 921049. Now I am on my second fuel pump, but surprisingly no one has a replacement, not the factory or any other suppliers. So basically, I have a lawn ornament. I liked the snow blower when I got it but after this trouble, I’m ready to see about converting it to carb. I’ll never buy a EFI system again.

Firm believer of K.I.S.S. All this modern innovation is considered progress. By what metric. Look at how those EV's function in the dead of winter, how long they take to recharge (or not recharge because battery went dead waiting for a stall to open and now the battery is too cold to charge.)

It's often said, and I'm pretty sure that it's true that the 70's was the best time to grow up (....ok, I happened to be there!), but it is actually a fact......, and having a Raliegh Chopper was the best bike or anything else you could actually possess (....ok, I happened to have one, and it was a Mark 1!). It's a real treat to see one of these again, loved, and filmed in wonderful close up detail! It must be a thrill to experience actually riding one again.....though as a 61 year old I'm sure I'd look more than a little silly giving it a go!

There aren't any pro's with efi over carb. None whatsoever. Pure junk!!

Excellent analysis and conclusion as the why an electronic fuel injection is just not practical On snow blowers.

If you factor in inflation (devaluation of the dollar) that $1,400 machine in 2003 would equate to $2,321.12 In today money.

Got one to do by spring. bought a spare that i could just put a motor on an use it.

If the battery is not charged will it still start up?

I just bought a new AW1550A. It’ll be a while before I need to service it but I appreciate your video. I’ve seen some models come with shims to adjust the belt tension.

The one variable that affects Carberators is corn-fuel (ethanol) . When you need to add a gas stabelizer to help gas function and lower carb parts corroding, that's a constant pain and does not eliminate destruction of your carborator. Like the cars of today there are no carborators anymore for a reason. Performance. I had a Ariens PRO1024 that ran great until the ethanol ate thru 2 carbs. Now I have a Ariens Platinum EFI/SHO and I'm not looking back. Until the electric snowblower evolves (and it will), this is my power snow blower. (40-50 ft distance). At 68 YO Need a tool that works for me not against me.

I buy a new one every 3 years . Ariens keep the best resale. Buy them for $1500 +- Take the tax deduction Do minimal maintenance Sell it for $1000 Get 3 years out of it for $500

I Will never get a new Ariens, but keep my old one in good shape

Great compare, i agree with you, Have an Ariens 30 pro, with carb, easy to fix, keep it AS simple AS possible

I'm a fellow brother local 353 Toronto. Thanks for sharing.

Hard to believe they would even used that style of motor. If they tried harder they could have made it even cheaper.

I just got this snow blower yesterday and it has the carb. I will trust the carb model over the EFI because I bet you will have problems with it. I have never heard one complaint on the carbed version. EfI is to new and unproven. Keep your snow shovel handy.

I’m sick of this. My back hurts just thinking about fixing snow blowers. Where are all the kids that used to clean driveways for a few bucks.

Thanks for this great "How-To" video. I'm about to troubleshoot / repair an 80-volt Kobalt. I wanted to see what kind of information is on YT. Is your shop anywhere near northern NJ? (That would be the easiest😀). This was very educational. When I was young it was easier to find repair businesses and parts... even specific for electric motor repairs. Best wishes!

I have an '86 247-645 model. I cannot locate a filler plug. Possible that it's the breather tube on the top of the unit. Dumped the hydraulic fluid. Reefilled using said tube, but now I have air in the system, and according to most help sites, I need to open the ram, then open the filler plug which will force air out of the system. Any ideas you could offer would be much appreciated.

Zee how do you install the battery.

There simply easy to rebuild them 😊

Nice bike, looking at the frame design (later non upturned cleet) later handle grips etc , this is probably a 1971 model...the rear wheel may be from an earlier bike?

Good hunting at good old punta cana. Any day hunting at the beach 🏖️ is a good day. Greetings from Dominican Republic

I agree with your initial premise, but it's the capitalist who have created our disposable society. The green deal people are trying to change that, but that's an uphill battle bubba. Just saying....

Very helpful video, thanks! I have one suggestion - some of us are susceptible to motion effects - please consider moving the camera slowly and steadily.
