    (2) snowblowers - 7hp Briggs and 10hp Tecumseh

    I have two broken snowblowers for free. Both engines are good and have been run as recently as 3 months ago.

    First up --- 7hp Craftsmen is older than dirt but the motor is very good. What killed it was a tire chain fell off and I didn't notice it until I turned around to make a pass and that's when the auger pulled the chain in which ended up splitting the gear case. Tried to repair but the auger shaft all but rusted itself to the auger over the years. If you have the bucket assy it's probably a good project and an easy swap, otherwise it's good for parts and a 7hp horizontal crank B&S engine.


    10hp Tecumseh-powered Yard Man --- Electric start. Not as old as dirt however the output shaft is eating the brass gears in the gear case as a result of the shaft threads becoming worn out and rounded. Replace the output shaft and the gears inside the case and you have yourself a decent snow blower. If not the motor would make a good power plant for a project vehicle.


    I'd fix the Yardman but the new house has a dirty driveway so I'm looking into a plow for my truck.


    Both free unless you want them delivered.

    I'll take the 10hp Tecumseh. Thats a direct swap for my snow blower and 2 HP more! Right no mine runs good, but will be good for when it gets tired.

    Unless someone is in dire need for it as theirs has Shit the bed and they have no $ to fix or replace it for winter...

    We should plan this out so whom ever goes out to get it first can bring the other one home!

    That sounds like a plan.

    I will ensure they both run but in the mean time the 3 of us can make a plan. Wednesday during the day is about the earliest I can roll so what ever you and Mike work out, PM or call.

    Only reason they are still here is because no one got in touch with me after I missed the window of delivery opportunity.

    Both motors run fine and neither of them smoke. Just started them a week ago. All the electrics work on the Yardman, light and electric starter.
