- Welcome to the second installment of this two part series on snowblower service and repair. In this video you see the overall design and function of single and two-stage auger configurations. Traction system tune-up (friction disk (wheel), belts, pulleys, clutch and brakes. The vintage machines will then face-off in a two part feat of strength. Who will win between the 8hp Toro, the 11 hp MTD Snowflite and the rough condition, but newer Noma Snow King (Craftsman) 10hp?
If you like old engines and vintage machinery and you want to learn a thing or two about fixing and repairing old snowblowers, you will enjoy this video.
Love that fancy aquamarine paint job on the Noma! Blowing snow only a couple of feet like that was a symptom of valves not closing properly due to no more clearance due to wear. Being so easy to pull start I should have known.
Yeah that engine has quite a bit of wear… It burns quite a bit of oil and most probably valves are worn also… Thanks, I really enjoyed your comment! Take care!
Awesome video Matt.
Thanks a lot! I appreciate the comment!
It would be cool to add the impeller scrapers to the noma and see what kind of difference it makes. I think it would make a huge improvement in how far it throws the snow.
I’m sure it would cause the gap is huge on that one! Good point! 👍
For the impeller palette mod @ 5m44s, did you mean to reduce the clearance? @ 5m52 you explained that too much clearance between the impeller and the casing wall was conducive to clogging with wet snow, so I believe you meant to bring the impeller closer to the casing wall.
Another good video!
Yeah, sorry if I wasn’t clear in the video, but yes the plastic scrappers reduce the impeller to wall clearance and this helps evacuate wet snow much easier. Thanks for watching my videos!!!
Nice video, nice editing. Wondering. You gonns do a video of the antic ride that happened during the weekend in hemmingford?
Yeah, it will be posted on Feb 27th. Stay tuned!!!
